Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claim was presented on 3 January 2023 and related to unpaid wages for September, October, November and December 2022. The respondent did not present a response by the return date of 8 February 2023 and did not attend the hearing. At the CVP hearing on 21 March 2023 before Employment Judge JM Wade, the tribunal recorded that there was enough information on the file, and confirmation from the claimant, to give judgment under Rule 21.
The tribunal upheld the claimant’s complaints of unlawful deduction from wages, breach of contract and unpaid holiday pay on termination of employment. It awarded £4,195.75 described as net damages for unlawfully deducted wages and notice pay, £726.90 for unpaid holiday pay, and £209.05 for bank or mortgage penalty charges and interest. The total awarded was £5,131.70.

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.
