Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a consent judgment covering four unfair dismissal claims brought by Mrs Caroline Ann Humphreys, Mr David Robert Sheppard, Mr Darren Kenneth Underwood and Mr Justin Lee Dudden against Victor 1003 Limited, Victor 1001 Limited and Victor 1002 Limited. The judgment records that the solicitors for the Claimants and the liquidators for the Respondents agreed the terms, so the tribunal made the order by consent and vacated the listed remedy hearing.
By consent, Mrs Humphreys was awarded a basic award of £11,836.00 and a compensatory award of £14,797.46 after a 35% Polkey deduction, producing a total unfair dismissal award of £26,633.46 payable by the Second Respondent. Mr Sheppard was awarded a basic award of £7,344.00 and a compensatory award of £7,932.62 after a 20% Polkey deduction, producing a total award of £15,276.62 payable by the Fourth Respondent.
Mr Underwood was awarded a basic award of £11,424.00 and a compensatory award of £26,184.76 after a 30% Polkey deduction, producing a total award of £37,608.76 payable by the Third Respondent. Mr Dudden was awarded a basic award of £12,374.00 and a compensatory award of £10,714.83 after a 30% Polkey deduction and an ACAS 25% uplift on £8,571.86 net, producing a total award of £23,088.83 payable by the Third Respondent.
The order also provides for interest on sums due at 8% or such other rate and for such period as the tribunal deems just until payment in full. It makes no order as to costs and states that neither the liquidators nor their staff have personal liability for the awards.

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.
