Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Respondent failed to enter a Response to the Claim. Employment Judge Smail therefore issued a Rule 21 judgment in chambers at Exeter on 23 September 2024, finding the Claimant's claims for unauthorised deductions (unpaid pay), holiday pay and notice pay (SSP) to be well-founded.
The Respondent was ordered to pay the Claimant £874.00 for owed pay, £55.10 for holiday pay and £776.00 for notice pay (SSP), giving a grand total of £1,695.10, payable within 14 days. The judgment was sent to the parties on 7 October 2024.

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.
