Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a preliminary hearing before Employment Judge Keevash at Leeds on 23 July 2019. The only substantive decision recorded in the written judgment was that the claimant's application for an order striking out the claim was refused. The judgment does not set out any merits findings about the underlying employment claims.
The tribunal also ordered the respondent, Athena Accountants Ltd, to pay the claimant £420.00, stated to include £70.00 VAT, in respect of the claimant's costs of and occasioned by the preliminary hearing. The judgment records that case management orders accompanied the decision.

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.
