Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe hearing was held remotely by video platform on 28 and 29 September 2020 before Employment Judge Dimbylow. The judgment records that, in the context of the coronavirus pandemic, the hearing was conducted remotely in accordance with safe practice and guidelines.
The tribunal held that the claimant was fairly dismissed, so the unfair dismissal claim failed and was dismissed. It also rejected the separate claim for damages arising from the respondent's alleged failure to give notice or make a payment in lieu of notice, finding that claim not well-founded and dismissing it.
The judgment was given orally at the hearing, so no written reasons were provided in the written record. No monetary award is recorded in the decision.

How we got this data
Case essentials (reference, date, judge, venue, country, claim categories) are extracted from the structured metadata gov.uk publishes alongside each decision. Parties and monetary figures are extracted from the judgment PDF text. Key findings and per-claim outcomes require a second extraction pass that is not yet complete for this case — until then, the primary source linked above is the authoritative record.
