Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a Rule 37 strike-out judgment in which Employment Judge S Jenkins struck out the claim against the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy and Emex Electrical Ltd. The Tribunal recorded that, by a letter dated 28 September 2020, the claimant was given an opportunity to make representations or request a hearing on why the claim should not be struck out because it had not been actively pursued.
The judgment states that the claimant failed to make representations in writing, or failed to make any sufficient representations, and did not request a hearing. On that basis, the Tribunal ordered that the claim be struck out. No substantive liability findings or monetary remedy were recorded in the decision.

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.
