Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claimant brought claims of unfair dismissal, wrongful dismissal, disability discrimination and unpaid holiday pay. The case had been listed for a five-day hearing after directions made on 14 June 2019, but the claimant had not complied with the directions. At the later hearing, the claimant said his health, and his partner's serious illness, meant he could not continue with the litigation and that he wished to withdraw the claims.
The tribunal noted that the claimant had emailed the respondent on 19 March 2020 indicating an intention to withdraw, but he had not notified the tribunal directly before the listing. The judge accepted his unequivocal withdrawal in the circumstances, took into account the current time scale and the claimant's inability to comply with the requirements of the case in future, and made no findings on the respondent's conduct. No application by the respondent was pursued.
All claims were dismissed upon withdrawal by the claimant. No remedy or monetary award was made.

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.
