EMPLOYMENT TRIBUNALS (SCOTLAND) Case No: 4111330/2019 Mr D Richards
Respondent
Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a Rule 21 judgment issued on the available material because no response had been presented to the claim. The claimant, Mr D Richards, brought claims against Fountainbridge Windows Ltd arising from the termination of his employment and unpaid sums. The Employment Judge, Frances Eccles, decided the matter on the papers and entered judgment on 13 November 2019.
The tribunal held that the claimant had been dismissed in breach of contract in respect of notice and awarded damages of £4,516.32. It calculated that sum as 12 weeks at a weekly rate of £376.36.
The tribunal also found that the claimant had been dismissed by reason of redundancy and was entitled to a redundancy payment of £11,290.80. That award was calculated as 30 weeks at £376.36.
In addition, the tribunal found that the respondent had failed to pay the claimant’s holiday entitlement and ordered payment of £960. The judgment does not set out any separate breakdown beyond the three sums awarded, and the bottom-line total payable from the three awards is £16,767.12.

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.
