Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal had written to the claimant on 7 August 2019 giving him an opportunity to make representations or request a hearing about why the claim should not be struck out on the basis that it had not been actively pursued.
The claimant did not make written representations, did not make sufficient representations, and did not request a hearing. Employment Judge Camp therefore struck out the claim.

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.
