Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal issued a Rule 21 judgment because the time limit for presenting a response had expired on 20 January 2021 and no response had been presented. Employment Judge Gumbiti-Zimuto decided on the available material that a determination could properly be made without a hearing on liability. On that basis, the claimant's complaints of unfair dismissal and wrongful dismissal succeeded.
The judgment did not record any remedy sum. Instead, the case was to be listed for a further hearing to decide what remedy the claimant was entitled to recover. That future hearing was also to consider the claims of unlawful deduction of wages and holiday pay, which had not been determined in this judgment.
The respondent was entitled to notice of any hearings and decisions of the tribunal, but could participate in any hearing only to the extent permitted by the judge.

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.
