Tribunal's reasoning

Miss A Ayling presented her claim in the Bristol Employment Tribunal on 1 April 2025. The respondent did not present a valid response in time, and the Employment Judge determined that the claim, or part of it, could properly be decided under rule 22 of the Rules of Procedure.

The tribunal found that The Moody Goose Ltd had made unauthorised deductions from the claimant’s wages. The judgment records that the respondent must pay the claimant £1,016.18. No separate breakdown of the award is given in the judgment.

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.
