Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe judgment was made under Rule 21. The tribunal found that the respondent had made an unauthorised deduction from the claimant's wages and ordered payment of £537 net, subject to lawful deductions for tax and national insurance.
The tribunal also found that the claimant was dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice. It ordered the respondent to pay £287 net as damages for that breach. The notice annex records the standard interest provisions if the judgment sum is not paid within 14 days, but no specific interest sum is awarded in the judgment.

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.
