Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe judgment was entered under Rule 21 after the time for presenting a response had expired and no valid response had been presented. The tribunal recorded that Miss Kirsty Symons had insufficient continuity of service to pursue claims for entitlement to a statutory redundancy payment and unfair dismissal, and those claims were dismissed on withdrawal by the claimant.
The tribunal found that the claimant was dismissed without notice on 31 January 2024. Her breach of contract claim was well founded, and the respondent was ordered to pay two months' notice pay in the net sum of £1,672.60. The judgment records that the claimant gave credit for £1,383.40 already received against that sum.
The claimant's claim for accrued but unpaid holiday pay was dismissed on withdrawal by the claimant. No discrimination claim, protected characteristic, injury to feelings award, interest award, or separate basic or compensatory award was recorded.

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.
