Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claimant, Mr G Salmon, brought a claim for unlawful deduction of wages against Good Honest Pubs Ltd (In Liquidation). The respondent did not attend the hearing. Employment Judge Midgley heard the case at Bristol by CVP on 28 August 2020.
The tribunal noted first that the claim had not been presented within the statutory limitation period. It then found that it had jurisdiction to hear the claim because it was not reasonably practicable for the claim to be presented within the limitation period and the claim was presented within a reasonable period thereafter.
On the merits, the tribunal found that the claim for unlawful deduction of wages was well founded and ordered the respondent to pay the claimant £140.00 net.

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.
