Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

This was a preliminary hearing before Employment Judge Johnson in Manchester on 8 October 2020. The tribunal dealt only with case management applications, not the substantive merits of the employment claims.

The respondent's application to postpone the full merits hearing listed for 9, 10 and 11 December 2020 was withdrawn because its director and sole witness, Ms Carla Wood, had cancelled her previously booked holiday. The tribunal therefore recorded that the December 2020 hearing would remain listed.

The claimant's application to amend her claim to add Ms Carla Wood as a second respondent under Rule 34 was dismissed. The written record states that the tribunal did not consider it to be in the interests of justice to allow the amendment. No remedy was awarded and no substantive liability findings were made in this decision.

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.
