Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningBy letter dated 14 March 2023, the Tribunal gave the claimant an opportunity to make written representations or request a hearing on why the case should not be struck out for non-compliance with the Tribunal's orders dated 31 January and 8 March 2023 and for failure to actively pursue the claim. The claimant did not respond in writing and did not request a hearing.
The reasons record that there had been no communication from the claimant since 8 December 2022. The Tribunal noted that further requests for information about his health and/or ability to attend the final hearing had also gone unanswered. It stated that, even allowing for language difficulties, the claimant was not actively pursuing the case.
The Tribunal considered it not proportionate for the respondent to incur the potentially wasted costs of attending the listed hearing. It therefore struck out the claim and cancelled the hearing listed for 21 March 2023. The judgment contains no merits findings and records no monetary award.

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.
