Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

This was a rule 37 strike-out judgment in which the tribunal struck out Mrs C Sherwood's claim against NFU Mutual because it had not been actively pursued. The judgment records that by letter dated 29 January 2020 the tribunal gave the claimant an opportunity to make written representations, or to request a hearing, explaining why the claim should not be struck out.

The claimant did not make any, or any sufficient, written representations and did not request a hearing. On that basis, Employment Judge Livesey concluded that the claim should be struck out. No substantive liability findings or remedy assessment were made in this judgment.

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.
