Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

Ms A Iley brought a claim for unfair dismissal against JT Lewis Limited. The respondent did not present a response form (ET3) by the deadline, and the tribunal recorded that the ET1 and accompanying documents had been served at an address from which the respondent operated and were not returned undelivered.

On 15 February 2022, Employment Judge Arullendran issued a Rule 21 judgment. The tribunal held that the claimant's unfair dismissal claim, brought pursuant to section 98 of the Employment Rights Act 1996, was well-founded. The judgment did not determine compensation at that stage and listed the matter for a remedy hearing on 10 May 2022.

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.
