Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe respondent failed to present a response in time, so judgment was entered for the claimant under Rule 22 of the Employment Tribunal Procedure Rules 2024 and the hearing proceeded in the respondent's absence. The tribunal found that BLL Holdings Limited unfairly dismissed Mr J Levy on 9 July 2024. It awarded him a basic award of £14,423.20 and a compensatory award of £0.
The tribunal also found that Mr Levy had been wrongfully dismissed. It accepted that he had a 24-month notice period and ordered the respondent to pay £50,000 in notice pay. The judgment states that Mr Levy is responsible for accounting for tax on any sum received under that paragraph.
The tribunal recorded that the compensatory award was offset against the higher notice-pay award because it was not possible to compensate the claimant twice for the same two-year period from dismissal, and it was not just and equitable to compensate beyond two years from dismissal. The total award was £64,423.20.

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.
