Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal held that Mr Mark Rose's complaint of unfair dismissal was well founded and succeeded, and it reached the same conclusion in Ms Caroline Robinson's unfair dismissal complaint against Wilf Ward Family Trust. The hearing took place at Teesside CFCTC before Employment Judge Johnson, and the decision was recorded as an oral judgment with written reasons not provided in this record.
No remedy figure was fixed in the judgment. Instead, the tribunal directed that any compensation awarded to either claimant should be reduced by 25% to reflect the possibility that either claimant may have been fairly dismissed had the respondent followed a fair procedure. It also directed a further 25% reduction to reflect the extent to which each claimant contributed to their own dismissal by their conduct, pursuant to sections 122(2) and 123(6) of the Employment Rights Act 1996.
The judgment required the parties' representatives to inform the tribunal by 31 January 2025 whether remedy had been agreed and settled. If not, a remedy hearing was to be listed for no later than 31 March 2025, with a three-hour time estimate.

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.
