Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a Rule 21 judgment given because the time for presenting a response had expired and no valid response to the unfair dismissal claim had been presented within the prescribed time limit, or accepted out of time. Employment Judge Holmes sat alone at a remote telephone hearing on 15 May 2020.
The tribunal found that the claimant's complaint of unfair dismissal was well founded and succeeded. The judgment was on liability only. It records that the respondent was permitted to contest remedy, and that its response in relation to remedy was accepted out of time.
The tribunal directed that remedy for the unfair dismissal claim, and the claimant's holiday pay claim, would be determined at a final hearing before an Employment Judge sitting alone at Manchester Employment Tribunal on 21 to 23 April 2021. The case management orders made at the preliminary hearing on 15 May 2020 were stated to continue to apply.

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.
