Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningDr Liu’s claim was heard at Liverpool on 28 and 29 September 2023 before Employment Judge Cookson sitting alone. The judgment records that the claimant was in person with an interpreter and the respondent was represented by counsel.
The Tribunal held that the claimant’s complaint that he was unfairly dismissed under section 94 of the Employment Rights Act was not well founded and dismissed it. No remedy was awarded.
The written record states that reasons were given orally at the hearing and that written reasons would not be provided unless requested in accordance with the note at the end of 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.
