Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal proceeded in the claimant's absence after waiting for him to join the video hearing and after the CVP link was sent to him. The judgment noted that he had known the hearing date since 10 October 2025 and that it would be by video link from 21 November 2025.
The first respondent accepted that the claimant was due gross arrears of pay of £1,308.46, subject to tax and National Insurance, and judgment was entered for that sum. The unfair dismissal claim was struck out because the claimant's employment ended before he had two years' qualifying service.
The disability discrimination claims were struck out after the claimant failed to provide ordered material and stated that he had no physical or mental disability. The notice pay, holiday pay, and other money claims were struck out because the claimant had not provided details despite tribunal orders and a strike-out warning.

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.
