Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal had written to the claimant on 24 November 2025 indicating it was considering striking the claim out under Rule 38 Employment Tribunal Procedure Rules 2024 on three bases: that the claim was scandalous or vexatious, had no reasonable prospect of success, and had not been actively pursued. The claimant had been made redundant on 19 January 2023.
The claimant did not respond to the Tribunal's letter or request a hearing. Employment Judge Sharp was satisfied that the grounds for strike-out under Rule 38 applied and that it would be in accordance with the overriding objective in Rule 3 to strike the claim out, primarily on the no-reasonable-prospect-of-success limb. The claim was struck out on 30 January 2026.

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.
