Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis judgment concerned the Respondent's application for costs after the Claimants withdrew their claims on 10 February 2023 and asked that no judgment be entered. The Employment Judge heard evidence from the Respondent's solicitor, the Claimants' current solicitor, and saw witness statements from Mr Keatings and Mr Gohil. The Respondent relied on Rules 76(1)(a) and 76(2), and also sought a wasted costs order under Rule 80.

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. See full methodology.
