Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningOn 3 March 2023 at Bristol, Employment Judge Midgley dealt with the case under Rule 21 after the respondent failed to enter a response and neither party attended or was represented. Having read the file and claim form, the tribunal entered judgment in favour of Mr S Kulahan for redundancy pay.
The judgment states that it was just and equitable for the claimant to receive a payment of redundancy pay pursuant to s.163(5) ERA 1996. The award was calculated using 20 years of continuous employment, a multiplier of 1.5 because the claimant was over 41, and gross weekly pay of £353.29, producing a total award of £10,598.78.

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.
