Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal, sitting at Leeds on 11 October 2022 before Employment Judge McAvoy Newns, recorded that the correct respondents were Mr Steve Voke and Oculis Construction Consultants Limited. The claimant appeared in person. The respondents did not attend because they were debarred.
The claimant's claim for unauthorised deductions from wages was dismissed because it had been presented out of time. The tribunal found that it was reasonably practicable for the claimant to present that claim in time, so it did not exercise its discretion to consider it.
The claimant's breach of contract claim was dismissed on the same basis. The tribunal found that it was presented out of time and that it was reasonably practicable for the claimant to present it in time, so it did not extend time for the claim.

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.
