Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe hearing took place by CVP at Birmingham on 24 March 2023 before Employment Judge Algazy KC. The claimant did not attend. The judgment records that the tribunal made two unsuccessful attempts to contact the claimant by telephone, and that the claimant's previous application to postpone the hearing had been refused on 14 March 2023.
The tribunal noted the Employment Tribunals (England and Wales) Presidential Guidance on seeking postponements of hearings (2013) before reaching its decision. No substantive evidence or merits findings are set out in the judgment. The dispositive order is that the claim was dismissed.

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.
