Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

The tribunal sat remotely at London Central on 22 and 23 February 2021. Employment Judge P Klimov sat alone. The claimant appeared in person and the respondent was represented by Mr D. Preston. The written judgment records that Mr N. Lowry was an employee of Peoples Coffee Limited and was entitled to bring claims for unfair dismissal, breach of contract (notice pay), and unlawful deductions from wages.

This is a short written record of an oral judgment. It does not set out the underlying factual findings, any legal test applied, or any monetary award. The judgment notes that reasons had been given orally at the hearing and that written reasons would not be provided unless requested within 14 days.

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.
