Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a Rule 21 judgment in which no response had been presented by Tech Yard 5 Ltd. The Employment Judge recorded that the claim form was sent to the respondent on 24 May 2018, that no response was entered by 21 June 2018 or at all, and that liability could properly be determined on the available material without a hearing.
On that material, the tribunal upheld the claimant’s complaint of unauthorised deduction from wages for February and March 2018 and ordered payment of £4,333.34. It also upheld the complaint that the claimant was dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice, awarding £2,166.67 in damages.
The tribunal further found that the respondent had failed to pay the claimant’s holiday entitlement and ordered a further £2,166.67. The reasons state that remedy was determined from the claimant’s reply of 28 June 2018 to the tribunal’s order for full details of the sums claimed.
The final hearing listed for 1 August 2018 was cancelled. The three monetary awards in the judgment total £8,666.68.

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.
