Victim's Career Ends: Banned From Tribunals
9 Feb
Summary
- Man banned from filing new employment tribunal claims.
- He filed over 4,600 claims, many without merit.
- Action taken after Daily Mail's AI-assisted campaign expose.
Christian Mallon, a 51-year-old from Cannock, Staffordshire, has been permanently banned from initiating new employment tribunal claims. This significant restriction follows an application by the Attorney General, Lord Hermer, after Mr. Mallon made seeking compensation his 'chosen career'.
Since 2017, Mr. Mallon, who possesses a PhD in chemical engineering, submitted over 4,600 job applications not to gain employment but to allege discrimination. His claims often cited his ADHD, autism, and dyspraxia, alleging employers failed to make reasonable adjustments. He also pursued claims for age, race, and religious discrimination.
The ban, a Restriction of Proceedings Order, was secured in November 2025. It halted four claims initiated last June and July against entities including Ernst and Young, Baxi Heating, the National Nuclear Laboratory, and the West Midlands Growth Company. Mallon had previously pursued cases against prominent employers such as the Cabinet Office and Rolls Royce.
