Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe only complaint recorded in the judgment was unfair dismissal brought by Mr S Harris against East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. The hearing took place at Croydon via CVP on 7 February 2024 before Employment Judge Leith, with the claimant absent and unrepresented and the respondent represented by Ms Haynes, solicitor.
The tribunal dismissed the unfair dismissal complaint under rule 47 of the Employment Tribunal Rules of Procedure because the claimant did not attend. No substantive liability findings or remedy assessment were made in the judgment, and no monetary award was recorded.

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.
