Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningNeither party attended the hearing on 7 June 2022, and the employment judge determined the matter on the papers after noting that neither side had provided any reason for their absence. The tribunal found that Mr J Kelsey’s claim of unauthorised deduction of wages contrary to section 13 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 was well-founded.

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.
