Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal dismissed the Second and Third Respondents from the proceedings. It found the Claimant's unfair dismissal claim well-founded against the First Respondent. The unfair dismissal remedy was a nil basic award and a compensatory award of £747.50, made up of £247.50 for 2 weeks' net wages and £500 for loss of statutory rights.
The tribunal also found that the Claimant was entitled to a statutory redundancy payment of £455.63. It held that the First Respondent breached the employment contract by failing to give notice as incorporated by section 86 of the Employment Rights Act 1996, and awarded £247.50 without deductions.
In addition, the tribunal found a failure to provide a written statement of employment particulars and ordered 4 weeks' pay of £607.50. It also found a failure to provide itemised payslips. The Claimant's holiday pay claim was dismissed.

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.
