Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

The judgment records that the claimant was ordered to pay the respondent costs of £2,000. The order was made because the claimant breached case management orders, which led to postponement of the hearing listed for 8 and 9 April 2025.

The Tribunal also stated that the claimant's conduct of the claim had been unreasonable within the meaning of rule 74(1)(a) of the Employment Tribunal Procedure Rules 2024. The judgment does not determine the underlying breach of contract, unfair dismissal, or unlawful deduction from wages claims.

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.
