Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal recorded that the correct name of the respondent was Auto Cosmetics (Leics) Ltd and that the claim was presented in the Midlands East Employment Tribunal on 11 July 2025. The respondent did not present a valid response on time, and the Employment Judge decided that a determination could properly be made under rule 22 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure.
On the merits, the tribunal found that Mr D Ashby was dismissed by reason of redundancy. It therefore held that he was entitled to a redundancy payment, and fixed that payment at £4,846.23.
The hearing listed for 7 November 2025 was cancelled. The judgment was approved by Employment Judge Heap on 9 September 2025.

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.
