Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt a preliminary hearing heard in Southampton on 2, 3, 4, 5 and 9 May 2023 before Employment Judge Dawson, the tribunal recorded that Mr A Scammell was unfairly dismissed by Sovereign Housing Association Ltd. It also found that his claim for breach of contract for wrongful dismissal succeeded.
The judgment says that the claimant's other claims were dismissed, but the written record does not identify them or set out the factual or legal reasons for those outcomes. The record notes that reasons were given orally at the hearing and that written reasons would not be provided unless requested.
The question of remedy was adjourned to a hearing to be fixed, and directions were given for availability, disclosure, witness statements and an agreed bundle. No monetary award is recorded in this 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.
