Respondent
Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningNo response was presented, so the tribunal issued a Rule 21 judgment on the available material. It found that Mr Antcliffe had been dismissed in breach of contract as to notice and awarded £2,200, representing four weeks' wages in lieu of notice. It also found that he had been unfairly dismissed. The basic award was calculated at 7.5 weeks' pay because he was 60 at the date of termination and had five years' complete service, with a weekly wage of £550, producing £4,125.
The tribunal further found that Mr Antcliffe was without work for two months after dismissal and awarded a compensatory award of nine weeks' wages, £4,950. It upheld the holiday entitlement claim and ordered payment of £2,121.43 for three weeks and six days of holiday accrued but untaken at termination. It also made an award of two weeks' pay, £1,100, under section 38 of the Employment Act 2002 because the respondent had not provided a written statement of employment terms. The total monetary awards recorded in the judgment come to £14,496.43.

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.
