Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe respondent, Prime Labels Retail Limited (in voluntary liquidation), did not present a valid response on time, and the Employment Judge determined the claim under Rule 21 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013. The tribunal found that the respondent had made an unauthorised deduction from wages and ordered it to pay Ms D Rowling the gross sum of £2,245.87 for non-payment of wages from 15 November 2023 to 21 December 2023.
The separate holiday pay claim was dismissed because, on the claimant's evidence, she had no accrued and unpaid holiday entitlement at the date her employment ended. The judgment records that the award is gross and that the claimant would be responsible for any tax liabilities if tax was not deducted at source. The attached interest notice states that interest is payable under Article 12 of the Employment Tribunals (Interest) Order 1990 and gives the relevant decision day as 9 August 2024 and the stipulated rate as 8% per annum, but no separate interest figure is stated in the extracted judgment text.

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.
