Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe respondent did not file an ET3. Employment Judge G Smart therefore determined the claim on the papers under rule 21 of the Employment Tribunals (Constitution and Rules of Procedure) Regulations 2013, without a hearing.
The tribunal accepted the ET1 and found that the respondent had failed to pay Ralph Gibson a statutory redundancy payment in breach of section 135 of the Employment Rights Act 1996. The amount due was found to be £15,504.00.
The tribunal ordered the respondent to pay £15,504.00 to the claimant. The listed hearing on 8 January 2024 was cancelled and the parties were told not to attend.

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.
