Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

The Tribunal had written to the claimant on 16 September 2019 giving her an opportunity to make representations about why the claim should not be struck out. The reasons given were non-compliance with the Tribunal's order dated 16 September 2019 and that the claim had not been actively pursued.

The claimant failed to make written representations, or failed to make sufficient representations, explaining why strike out should not occur. The claim was therefore struck out, and the hearing listed for 28 and 29 January 2020 was cancelled.

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.
