Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal struck out Mr Parkinson's claim against Vehicle Preparation Services Ltd. It recorded that the respondent company was in compulsory liquidation and that the permission of the court had not been obtained for the proceedings to be instituted or continued, as required by the Insolvency Act 1986.
The tribunal also noted that on 17 October 2019 it gave the claimant 14 days to provide written reasons why the claim should not be struck out for not being actively pursued. The claimant did not give an acceptable reason.
For those reasons, the claim was struck out. The judgment does not record any substantive findings on the merits of the underlying employment complaint, and it does not award any remedy.

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.
