Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal reconsidered the default judgment dated 8 November 2021, revoked paragraphs 1, 2 and 4, and confirmed paragraph 3. It then dealt with the substantive claims on the basis of the record before it.
The claims for unfair dismissal, wrongful dismissal, and unlawful deduction of wages, including holiday pay, were dismissed. The tribunal stated that it did not have jurisdiction to consider those claims because they were not brought within the statutory time limit when it was reasonably practicable for them to be brought.
The tribunal upheld the redundancy claim and ordered J C Antunes Limited to pay Ms A Pinto Pereira de Almeida a statutory redundancy payment of £3,630. No separate element of compensation or interest was recorded in the judgment beyond that redundancy award.

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.
