Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt a preliminary hearing on 22 October 2020 before Employment Judge L Burge, the claimant's application to amend his claim was granted so that it included an allegation of breach of Regulation 4 of the Working Time Regulations 1998, namely working in excess of 48 hours per week. The judgment is procedural and does not contain findings on liability for that allegation.
The respondent was given permission to serve an amended defence within 14 days. That amendment was limited to responding to the new Working Time Regulations claim and to removing pleadings relating to non-payment of annual leave on termination, which the judgment states had previously been withdrawn by the claimant. No monetary award was made.

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.
