Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal recorded that Mr J Gill's wrongful dismissal claim, described as a claim for notice pay, was not well founded and was dismissed. The complaint of unfair dismissal was well-founded, and the judgment states that the claimant was unfairly dismissed.
For remedy, the tribunal found there was a 100% chance that the claimant would have been fairly dismissed in any event. It also found that the claimant caused or contributed to the dismissal by blameworthy conduct, making it just and equitable to reduce any compensatory award by 50%. The tribunal further found it just and equitable to reduce the basic award by 50% because of the claimant's conduct before dismissal.
The respondent was ordered to pay a basic award of £3,675.00. The judgment states that this was the actual sum payable after deductions or uplifts had been applied, and no separate compensatory award, interest, or other monetary remedy was quantified in the written 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.
