Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis judgment covers two joined claimants against an insolvent respondent (LC Precision Engineering Ltd, in Creditors Voluntary Liquidation). The respondent did not attend. Mr Roy succeeded on unfair dismissal (compensatory award £4,957.50) and one week's contractual notice (£445.75); his protective award claim was dismissed. The total payable to Mr Roy is £5,403.25.
Mr Ollis succeeded on a wrongful dismissal claim for one week's statutory notice pay (£653.25 gross) and on a section 38 Employment Act 2002 award of four weeks' pay (£2,613 gross) for the respondent's failure to provide a written statement of employment particulars. His claims for arrears of wages and holiday pay were dismissed on the basis that appropriate payments would be made by the Secretary of State, and his unfair dismissal and redundancy claims were dismissed because he did not have the requisite period of service. The total payable to Mr Ollis is £3,266.25.

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.
