Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe case was heard at Birmingham Employment Tribunal via CVP on 20 and 21 July 2022 before Employment Judge Noons. The tribunal decided that Mr J Hannon had been unfairly dismissed and wrongfully dismissed by Wombourne Funeral Services. The written record states that reasons were given orally at the hearing and that written reasons would not be provided unless requested within 14 days.
The parties agreed the amounts due to the claimant. Those agreed figures were a basic award of £2,490, notice pay of £1,660, loss of earnings of £1,453, and an uplift for failure to follow the ACAS Code of Practice of £778.25. The tribunal ordered payment of £2,490 for the basic award and £3,891.25 for the compensatory award.
The Employment Protection (Recoupment of Jobseekers Allowance and Income Support) Regulations 1996 were recorded as applying. The prescribed period was 15/04/20 to 10/06/20, and the prescribed element was £594.80. No written reasons, legal test, or detailed factual findings were included in the published record beyond the oral judgment and the agreed remedies.

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.
