Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claim was presented in the South East Employment Tribunal on 6 November 2023. The respondent failed to present a valid response on time, and Employment Judge Tynan determined that the claim could properly be decided under rule 22 of the Rules of Procedure without a hearing of the respondent's case.
The tribunal found that the claimant was dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice, and ordered the respondent to pay damages of £18.22. The tribunal also found that the respondent had failed to pay the claimant's holiday entitlement and ordered payment of £1,116.50.
The respondent was ordered to pay the claimant £1,134.72 in total.

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.
