Legal matters
In 2013, Amshold Group Limited was involved in an employment tribunal case brought by Stella English, winner of the sixth series of The Apprentice.[5]
The tribunal dismissed the claim, finding in favour of Amshold Group Limited.[6]
Subsequent media reports noted legal proceedings related to costs, which were later resolved without costs being awarded against English.[7][8]
