Outcome

Claimant fails

Individual claims

Otherfailed

The tribunal heard the evidence and found the claims against both the first respondent (individual) and the second respondent (company) were not well-founded. The judgment was given orally at the hearing with full reasoning provided to the parties at that time.

Facts

Mr D Pour brought claims against Mr K Kasaei personally and Spectre Leisure (NE) Limited, a company in the leisure/hospitality sector. The claimant represented himself at a video hearing. The first respondent attended in person while the second respondent did not attend. The tribunal heard evidence and oral submissions from the parties present.

Decision

The tribunal found that all of the claimant's claims against both respondents were not well-founded and dismissed them. Oral reasons were given at the hearing but written reasons were not requested within the 14-day period and therefore were not produced.

Practical note

This case demonstrates that claims brought against both an individual and a company can fail on their merits after a full hearing, even where one respondent does not attend.
