Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis is a Rule 21 judgment in which Employment Judge K.J. Palmer recorded that the claim succeeds. The judgment text does not identify the substantive legal claim beyond the case listing context, so the precise cause of action is not stated in the extracted PDF text.
The judgment also records that the remedy to which the claimant is entitled will be determined at a later Remedy Hearing. No monetary award is stated in the judgment, and no liability details beyond the success finding are set out in the extracted text. The judgment is dated 10 February 2021 and was sent to the parties on 15 April 2021.

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.
