Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMr Mitchell said in his claim form that he had been due wages, notice pay and outstanding holidays. The tribunal recorded that Morgan Woods Ltd did not dispute that sums were due and outstanding, but said it could not afford to make payment.
The tribunal found that three weeks' salary remained unpaid when the employment ended. It recorded that the claimant earned £3,466.67 gross per month, equivalent to £800 gross per week and £113.97 gross per day, and held that the unpaid wages amounted to £2,400 gross. That sum was declared an unlawful deduction from wages.
The tribunal also found that, as at termination, the claimant had accrued one day's holiday that had not been paid. It ordered payment of £113.97 gross for that accrued holiday entitlement. The total sum due was £2,513.97 gross, subject to deductions required by law.

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.
