Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claimant did not attend the hearing on 23 October 2023. She had written to the respondent on 20 October 2023 saying that she was withdrawing her tribunal claim, but she did not write to the tribunal to confirm withdrawal.
The employment judge ordered her to write to the tribunal by 30 October 2023 either confirming that the claim was withdrawn or explaining why she had not attended. She was warned that, if she did not want the claim struck out, she needed to explain the position or request a hearing to do so.
The claimant did not respond at all. The tribunal therefore concluded that she had not actively pursued her claim and struck it out under rule 37.

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.
