Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe hearing took place in Manchester on 31 January 2025 before Employment Judge Slater. The tribunal refused the claimant’s application to strike out the response and refused the respondent’s application to strike out the claim. No deposit order was made.
The only substantive claim disposed of in this judgment was unfair dismissal. That complaint was dismissed because the claimant withdrew it. The judgment does not record any findings on the merits of the dismissal claim, and it states that the case would proceed to the final hearing already listed.
The written record notes that reasons had been given orally at the hearing, so no written reasons were provided. No remedy was awarded in this 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.
