Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge Midgley entered a Rule 21 default judgment in favour of Mr K Busby against Reach PLC c/o Beverley Woodhams on 5 May 2021. The judgment states that the claim succeeds and that the remedy to which the claimant is entitled will be determined at a Remedy Hearing.
This decision is liability-only. It does not contain any substantive findings on the merits of the claim heads or any monetary award, and it leaves all remedy issues for later determination.

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.
