Tribunal's reasoningAt a CVP hearing at London South Employment Tribunal on 5 June 2025, Employment Judge A. Beale KC recorded withdrawals by Ms F Gabella and made dismissal orders for the withdrawn claims identified in the judgment. The dismissed-upon-withdrawal claims were harassment allegations listed as Acts 7-20, direct discrimination allegations listed as Acts 12.6-12.18 and 12.21, breach of contract claims identified as Breaches 1 and 2, and the entire claim under the Working Time Regulations 1998.
The tribunal recorded that the claim for unauthorised deductions from wages was withdrawn by the Claimant but was not dismissed. The stated reason was to avoid any question of estoppel, because the claims brought under s.13 Employment Rights Act 1996 had been relabelled as breach of contract claims.
The tribunal also dismissed, upon withdrawal by the Claimant, the claims brought against a list of individual named respondents: Hayley Edel, Isabella Kaleta, Kathryn Lucy Barrow, Hywel William Ball, Arati Prasad, Caroline E. Henderson, Nisha Pujara, Angela Barge, Saman Ghalamzan, Gregory Alperin, Daniel Edmund Feather, Jane Kilewe Musyoki, Chloe Simmons, Sonila Routsi, Paul Sutcliffe, Olesya Karpenko and Mayuri Jayadevan. The claim against Katie Beth Dallimore Fox as an individual named respondent was dismissed for reasons given at the Preliminary Hearing and in a Case Management Order sent after the hearing.
No remedy award or monetary figure was recorded in the 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.
