Mrs K Baker

Respondent

Barton Blinds Limited

Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

The claim was presented in the Leeds Employment Tribunal on 13 October 2024. The respondent failed to present a valid response on time, and Employment Judge Singh decided that a determination could properly be made of the claim, or part of it, under rule 22 of the Rules of Procedure.

The judgment records that the claim succeeds. It does not specify the underlying pleaded heads of claim in the short text provided, and no liability findings are broken down claim by claim in the judgment itself.

Remedy was not determined in this judgment. The matter was listed for a Remedy Hearing, with the hearing listed on 6 June 2025 converted to remedy and a time estimate of 2 hours.

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.
