Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt Cardiff Employment Tribunal, after hearings on 20 December 2023 and 12 January 2024 before Employment Judge Lloyd-Lawrie, the tribunal held that Mr R Sutcliffe’s claim of unfair dismissal was well-founded and found that he had been unfairly dismissed by Freight Systems Express (Wales) Ltd. The tribunal also found that the Claimant did not contribute to his own dismissal.
The judgment dealt with liability only. The tribunal stayed the matter for 28 days to allow the parties to try to resolve remedy, and said the case would be referred back to the Employment Judge after that period so that a remedy hearing could be listed if necessary. No remedy figure was 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.
