Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningRegional Employment Judge Davies determined this rule 22 default judgment after the respondent (in voluntary liquidation) failed to engage. The judge struck out the unfair dismissal complaint for want of jurisdiction because the claimant had not worked for the respondent for two years and had not replied to the Tribunal's warning letter, and the claim was not one of automatically unfair dismissal.
The complaints of unauthorised deductions from wages and unpaid accrued holiday were both well-founded. The respondent was ordered to pay £2,400 for 160 hours of wages, £742 for 33 hours of overtime and £270 for accrued holiday, giving a total of £3,412.

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.
