Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal found that Mr Taylor was wrongfully dismissed without notice. It also found that Lidl unreasonably failed to comply with the relevant ACAS Code of Practice by not informing him in writing of the outcome of his appeal against dismissal as soon as possible. On that basis, the tribunal ordered compensation for breach of contract, including any increase under section 207A of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992, in the agreed sum of £2,243.75.
All other complaints were dismissed. Those included the section 94 Employment Rights Act 1996 unfair dismissal complaint, the section 26 Equality Act 2010 harassment complaint, the section 15 Equality Act 2010 disability-related discrimination complaint, and the complaints under sections 20 and 21 Equality Act 2010 for failure to make reasonable adjustments.

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.
