Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe written judgment records that the matter was heard at Liverpool in chambers on 1 July and 6 September 2022 before Employment Judge Benson. The claimant appeared in person, the respondent was represented by Ms K Lynch, solicitor, and Mr A Roberts appeared in person.
The tribunal ordered Mr A Roberts to pay the respondent costs of £500 pursuant to Rule 80 of the Employment Tribunal Rules of Procedure 2013. The written judgment does not set out findings on the underlying unfair dismissal, discrimination, or breach of contract claims; it states that oral reasons were given and that written reasons would only be provided on request.

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.
