Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a Rule 21 judgment issued by Employment Judge C Sharp sitting alone at Cardiff by CVP, with the Respondent debarred and not in attendance. The three Claimants, represented by a trade union representative, succeeded on claims of unauthorised deduction from wages (including unpaid accrued annual leave), wrongful dismissal, and unfair dismissal against Chartreuse Mart Ltd.
The Tribunal directed the Respondent to pay gross sums to each Claimant under each head of claim. For unfair dismissal, awards were broken down into a basic award and a compensatory award for each Claimant. The wrongful dismissal sums were stated to take account of earnings during the notice period.
The Claimants' redundancy claims were also found to be well-founded, but the Tribunal recorded that they were addressed within the unfair dismissal award rather than producing a separate sum. The Claimants were noted as responsible for any tax or statutory deductions that may be due. Written reasons were not to be provided unless requested within 14 days, as reasons had been given orally.

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.
