Mr M Pilkington
Respondent
Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe respondent, KGS Care Services Limited, failed to present a valid response on time. Employment Judge Allen therefore determined the claim under Rule 21 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013 without a contested hearing, and the listed hearing on 13 February 2023 was cancelled.
The tribunal found that the respondent had made an unauthorised deduction from Mr M Pilkington's wages and ordered payment of the gross sum of £350.00. A separate notice on interest recorded that interest would be payable if the sum was not paid within 14 days of the written record being sent on 1 February 2023, with 2 February 2023 as the calculation day and 8% per annum as the stipulated rate.

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.
