Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMrs S Brooks brought a claim of unfair dismissal against St Luke's Hospice Plymouth. The case was heard at Exeter on 11 and 12 January 2024 before Employment Judge Volkmer, with the claimant appearing in person and the respondent represented by counsel.
The tribunal held that the claimant's unfair dismissal claim was not well founded and dismissed it. The written record does not set out the tribunal's full reasoning because reasons were given orally at the hearing.
The decision record also states that written reasons would not be provided unless requested in accordance with the tribunal's usual procedure. No monetary remedy was awarded or recorded in the judgment text.

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.
