Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a Rule 21 judgment issued by Employment Judge Quill on 10 April 2024 in respect of claims brought by Mr J Burnley against Stark Offroad Fabrications Ltd. The tribunal found that the respondent had made an unauthorised deduction from the claimant's wages and ordered payment of £7,165.48 gross, subject to lawfully required PAYE deductions. The tribunal also found that the claimant had been dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice and ordered damages of £324.40, to be paid without deduction.
The tribunal further found that the respondent had failed to pay the claimant's holiday entitlement and ordered payment of £973.20, subject to lawfully required PAYE deductions. On the itemised payslips complaint, the tribunal recorded that the respondent had wholly failed in its obligations but made no separate award on the basis that the sums already ordered dealt with the unauthorised deductions, and no evidence or argument had been presented of other deductions. No award was made for interest.

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.
