Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal recorded that Miss S Benfield's proceedings against Alan Heather were dismissed following a withdrawal of the claim by the claimant. The extracted judgment contains no substantive findings on liability, no factual analysis of the underlying dispute, and no award of compensation or other remedy.
Because the claim was withdrawn, the judgment does not record any determination on the merits. The only outcome stated is dismissal of the proceedings after withdrawal. The extracted text also gives no panel members and no legal test applied beyond the dismissal order itself.

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.
