Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a costs judgment in which Employment Judge Brain, sitting alone at Sheffield by CVP on 14 December 2023, considered a wasted costs application arising from the hearing on 9 October 2023. The judgment records that the tribunal made a summary assessment of the claimant's wasted costs and ordered The Hub Pharmacy Limited to pay £350.
The tribunal directed that the sum of £350 be paid on or before 5 January 2024. The written record also notes that reasons were given orally at the hearing and that written reasons would not be provided unless requested within 14 days of the sending of the decision record.
No substantive liability findings on the underlying employment claims are set out in this short decision, and no discrimination, unfair dismissal, or other substantive claim outcome is recorded in the text provided.

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.
