Employment Tribunal

In May 2013 Amshold was cleared of a constructive dismissal claim brought by Stella English,[5] [6] [7] winner of the sixth series of The Apprentice. In the ruling it was stated the case was: "a claim which should never have been brought."[8]

In June 2013 it was reported that Alan Sugar was suing Stella English for £35,000 "to recover costs".[9] [10] Later that year the East London Tribunal Service ruled that English would not be required to pay any of the costs, which by then had grown to £50,000.[11]
