Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a strike-out judgment in which Employment Judge Roper ordered that the claim be struck out. The tribunal noted that by letters dated 25 October 2019 and 18 November 2019 the claimant had been given an opportunity to make written representations or request a hearing as to why the claim should not be struck out for not having been actively pursued.
The tribunal found that the claimant failed to make representations in writing, failed to make any sufficient representations explaining why strike out should not follow, and did not request a hearing. On that basis, the tribunal concluded that the claim should be struck out under rule 37.
No remedy was awarded and the judgment records only the procedural disposal of the claim. The extracted judgment does not identify the substantive cause or causes of action in 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.
