Mr C Morton v Peaky Blinders Manchester Limited — 2020

At a hearing in Manchester on 24 February 2020 before Employment Judge Benson, with the claimant appearing in person and no attendance for the respondent, the tribunal found that Peaky Blinders Manchester Limited had made an unauthorised deduction from the claimant's wages. It ordered the respondent to pay Mr C Morton £844.71 gross in respect of financial losses incurred.

The tribunal also found that the respondent had breached the claimant's contract and ordered payment of £251.00 net as damages. No separate findings on discrimination, dismissal, or other claims appear in the judgment text provided.

The written record states that reasons were given orally and that written reasons would not be provided unless requested. A separate interest notice recorded that sums payable under the judgment would carry interest under the Employment Tribunals (Interest) Order 1990 if unpaid after 14 days from 27 February 2020, with the stipulated rate stated as 8%, but no separate interest amount was awarded in the judgment itself.
