Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal found that the Claimant's complaints of unfair dismissal and breach of contract, identified as failure to pay notice pay, were well founded. It ordered the Respondent to pay £115,115 for unfair dismissal and £25,000 for breach of contract.
The Tribunal dismissed the Respondent's employer's contract claim. It also directed that if the Respondent deducted Income Tax or National Insurance from the payments, it must provide a written calculation and confirm payment to HMRC.
The Employment Judge was satisfied under rule 74(2)(a) of the Employment Tribunal Procedure Rules 2024 that the Respondent had acted unreasonably in the way the proceedings were conducted, and ordered the Respondent to pay £20,000 in costs.

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.
