Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe judgment was made under Rule 21 because the respondent failed to present a valid response on time. The Employment Judge decided that the claim, or part of it, could properly be determined without a hearing.
The tribunal found that the respondent had made unauthorised deductions from the claimant's wages, although the extracted text does not show a wage deduction figure. It also found that the claimant was dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice and awarded damages of £1,085, and that the respondent had failed to pay holiday entitlement and awarded £425.32.
The respondent was ordered to pay £1,510.32 in total, and the hearing listed for 23 June 2022 was cancelled.

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.
