Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMrs B Morton brought a breach of contract complaint and two unlawful deduction from wages complaints against Leazes Arcade Limited. Sitting at Newcastle by video on 12 April 2023, Employment Judge Aspden held that the breach of contract complaint, based on termination without notice, was not well founded.
By consent, the tribunal found that the complaint about holiday pay due on termination was well founded. The respondent was ordered to pay £165.83, described as the amount the parties agreed remained due to the claimant.
The separate complaint that the respondent had failed to pay for 12 hours worked was recorded as dismissed, having been withdrawn by the claimant. The judgment states that reasons were given orally at the hearing and that written reasons would not be provided unless requested.

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.
