Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claim was determined under rule 21 because the respondent failed to present a valid response on time. Employment Judge Self decided that a determination could properly be made on the papers. The judgment records that the claimant was dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice, and awards damages of £3,168.00 for that breach.
The tribunal also found that the claimant was dismissed by reason of redundancy and was entitled to a redundancy payment of £5,148.00. No discrimination, unfair dismissal, or other statutory heads of claim are recorded in the judgment text provided.
The respondent was ordered to pay £8,316.00 in total. The judgment also states that all future hearings were cancelled.

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.
