Claimant v Andrews Estate Agents Ltd
Outcome
Individual claims
The tribunal heard the case over two days and determined that the dismissal was fair. The reasons for this conclusion were given orally at the hearing but are not recorded in this reserved judgment document.
The tribunal found that the respondent did not breach the claimant's contract of employment in dismissing him. The detailed reasoning was provided orally at the hearing.
Facts
Mr Joyner was employed by Andrews Estate Agents Ltd and was subsequently dismissed. He brought claims for unfair dismissal and wrongful dismissal. The case was heard over two days via video link, with the claimant representing himself and the respondent represented by counsel.
Decision
The tribunal dismissed both claims, finding that the claimant was neither unfairly nor wrongfully dismissed. The detailed reasons for the tribunal's conclusions were given orally at the hearing on 27th February 2025.
Practical note
This case demonstrates the importance of requesting written reasons when they are not automatically provided, as the judgment document itself contains no substantive reasoning for the tribunal's conclusions.
