Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe case was listed for final hearing on 26, 27 and 28 October 2022, but on the third day the parties advised the tribunal that they had agreed terms of settlement and asked for a consent judgment under Rule 64. The judgment records that the respondent conceded the claimant had been dismissed and that the dismissal was unfair. The reasons section also records that the live issues before settlement had included whether the claimant resigned or was dismissed, the reason for any dismissal, whether the dismissal was unfair, and what remedy would follow.
The claimant also had a breach of contract claim for notice pay covering 26 April to 13 May 2022, pleaded at £1,000 gross and £900 net. That claim was withdrawn by the claimant and was dismissed upon withdrawal. Because the case settled, the tribunal did not make substantive findings on the competing accounts or on the Polkey or contribution issues that had been listed for determination.
By consent, Adrok Limited was ordered to pay Mr Lewis Lawrence £2,500 in total. The judgment records a basic award of £738.46, a compensatory award of £900, a 15% ACAS uplift of £245.76, and time preparation costs of £615.77. The judgment also records that the total of the basic and compensatory award was £1,638.46, rising to £1,884.23 with the uplift, before adding time preparation costs to reach £2,500.

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.
