Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe case was heard at Newcastle upon Tyne before Employment Judge Johnson sitting alone on 11 April 2022. The respondent did not attend or appear. The written judgment is brief and records the outcomes and awards without any extended recital of the underlying facts or legal analysis.
The tribunal found that Miss Stretton's complaint of unfair dismissal was well-founded and ordered the respondent to pay £1,967.00 compensation for that claim. It also found that her breach of contract complaint, pleaded as failure to pay notice pay, was well-founded and ordered payment of £500.00 as wages in lieu of notice.
Two further money claims also succeeded. The tribunal upheld the unlawful deduction from wages complaint and ordered payment of £247.76 net, with the respondent responsible for any income tax and national insurance contributions on that sum. It also upheld the complaint described as an unauthorised deduction from wages in relation to accrued holiday pay and ordered payment of £75.00 net on the same tax treatment basis.
The total of the monetary awards recorded in the judgment is £2,789.76. The judgment does not set out a separate basic award, does not split the unfair dismissal award into components, and does not record any interest award.

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.
