Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt a hearing in Liverpool on 5 November 2019, before Employment Judge Shotter sitting alone, the tribunal determined a preliminary issue about the correct respondent. The judgment states that the correct respondent was Hobs Reprographics Limited.
As a result, all claims against the first respondent, Hobs Group Limited, were dismissed. The decision does not record any substantive findings on the merits of the underlying claims, and it does not set out any monetary award.
The judgment sent to the parties was dated 26 November 2019. No lay members are listed, and no legal test is expressly cited in the extracted 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.
