Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal, sitting at Bury Saint Edmunds by CVP before Employment Judge M. Hunt on 24-25 November 2025, considered four claims brought by Mr I. Hutchinson against Creative Medical Research Limited (in Liquidation), which was represented by its liquidator Mr J. Mitchell. The judgment was given orally at the hearing and recorded in a short written record.
The tribunal found that the claim of unauthorised deduction from wages, relating to unpaid holiday entitlement, was well-founded and succeeded. The Respondent was ordered to pay the Claimant £1,935.45 (gross), with credit to be given for any further payment made by the Redundancy Payments Service.
The remaining three claims were found not well-founded and were dismissed: the complaint of unfair dismissal, the claim for a redundancy payment, and the claim of wrongful dismissal. Written reasons were not provided with the decision; the note records that they will only be issued on request made within 14 days of the written record being sent.

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.
