Mrs Oliver received a basic award of £7,225.20, £350 for loss of statutory rights and £9,645.12 for loss of earnings. Mr Oliver received a basic award of £3,371.76, £350 for loss of statutory rights and £9,645.12 for loss of earnings.

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.
