Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt an open preliminary hearing on 7 October 2024, Employment Judge J G d'Inverno held that Morar North Berwick Ltd trading as North Berwick Care Home was the claimant's employer as at the effective date of termination, identified in the judgment as 20/21 September 2023. The tribunal also held that this was the legal entity against which the claimant was entitled to direct her complaints of discrimination and breach of contract concerning non-payment of expenses.
The judgment dismissed the claimant's claims insofar as they were directed against Bridge of Weir Care Home Ltd and the apparent Simply Care Group UK Ltd, and dismissed those entities as parties to the proceedings. The extract states that the judgment and reasons were delivered orally at the conclusion of the open preliminary hearing and that no written Note of Reasons was attached, so the tribunal did not determine the substantive merits of the claims in this judgment.

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.
