Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal held that the complaint of unfair dismissal was well-founded, meaning that the respondent unfairly dismissed the claimant. It awarded a basic award and a sum for loss of statutory employment rights arising from the unfair dismissal, while stating that no compensatory award for unfair dismissal had been made.
The tribunal also held that the complaint of wrongful dismissal was well-founded because the respondent had not paid all of the notice pay to which the claimant was entitled. It further held that the claim for unpaid commission outstanding on termination was well-founded and succeeded.
The respondent was ordered to pay a total of £6,259.52, made up of £2,603.75 basic award for unfair dismissal, £350.00 for loss of statutory employment rights, £520.75 for notice pay, and £2,785.02 for outstanding commission. The recoupment provisions did not apply.

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.
