Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal dismissed Mr Walker's unfair dismissal claim, finding it was not well-founded. It held instead that Canopy Wealth Management Limited was in breach of contract by dismissing him without notice, and ordered £22,333 gross damages, subject to deductions for tax and national insurance and a further £17,500 deduction from the net amount to reflect sums already paid to the claimant.
The tribunal also ordered a statutory redundancy payment of £4,283 net and £1,710 net for unpaid pension contributions. The judgment records those monetary awards separately rather than a single compensation figure, and the pension contribution award is mapped here to unlawful deduction from wages because that is the category reflected in the case listing.

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.
