Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Employment Tribunal sat in chambers at Plymouth on 31 July 2020 and entered judgment under Rule 21 because the time for presenting a response had expired and no valid response had been presented. The claimant was Mr R Mottershead and the respondent was Mr Paul Matthews trading as Crab Shack on the Beach.
The claimant's claim for accrued but unpaid holiday pay succeeded. The tribunal ordered the respondent to pay the claimant the gross sum of £2,347.00. No separate findings, legal analysis, or additional remedy components were set out in the judgment beyond that award.

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.
