Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal entered judgment for the claimant on the claim of unlawful deductions from wages arising from commission payments for Open University. The claim was sent to the respondent on 24 July 2020, with a response due by 21 August 2020, but the respondent did not reply or apply for an extension.
Because the respondent did not engage, Employment Judge Goodman entered judgment in default. The judgment decided liability only. It records that the amount claimed was in the order of £32,000, but that sum still had to be proved by the claimant by producing full documents and giving oral evidence at the hearing listed for 16 September 2020, which was converted from a closed to a public hearing.

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.
