Respondent
Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe hearing was listed to deal with Mr A Greenaway's claim of unauthorised deductions from wages. The respondent had not submitted a response. The hearing was therefore arranged to determine remedy, but on the morning of the hearing neither party attended.
The tribunal clerk contacted the claimant by telephone. He said that he was at work and that he did not intend to attend. Employment Judge S Jenkins considered Rule 47 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure and decided to proceed in the claimant's absence.
Because the claimant was not present to give evidence in support of the claim, and in light of the notice of hearing stating that the tribunal would hear evidence and decide compensation or other remedy, the tribunal dismissed the claim of unauthorised deductions from wages.

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.
