Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Claimant was summarily dismissed and brought a claim for breach of contract, seeking two weeks' pay in lieu of notice. The Respondent filed an appearance to the claim form stating that it did not wish to defend the claim and accepted that the Claimant was paid £2,292 per month.
Employment Judge Housego calculated the notice pay by multiplying the monthly salary by 12 to give an annual salary of £28,704, then dividing by 52 and multiplying by 2 to arrive at £1,104. The Respondent was ordered to pay that sum to the Claimant, with the Claimant responsible for accounting to HMRC for income tax; national insurance was not payable as the award was for breach of contract.
The judgment notes that while the claim form referred to other breaches of contract, none were set out, and the financial claim was limited to two weeks' pay.

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.
