Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal struck out Miss S Kirkham's claim against Industrial Coating Services Ltd (In Administration). It recorded that the respondent company was in administration and that neither the consent of the administrator nor permission of the court had been obtained for the proceedings to be instituted or continued, as required by the Insolvency Act 1986.
The tribunal also noted that on 21 July 2023 it had given the claimant an opportunity to provide written reasons why the claim should not be struck out for not having been actively pursued. The claimant did not provide an acceptable reason. On that basis, the tribunal decided that the claim should be struck out. The judgment was issued by Employment Judge Meichen on 3 January 2024.

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.
