Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMr M Hurt's case was listed for final hearing at Leeds on 12 January 2024 before Employment Judge Jaleel. The claimant did not attend. Tribunal staff attempted to contact him by telephone and left an answerphone message asking him to contact the tribunal or join the hearing, and the hearing was delayed by 15 minutes to allow him to do so.
The judge recorded that the claimant had been sent correspondence on 27 October 2023 containing the hearing details and instructions on how to join. Taking into account that it was for the claimant to establish his claim and the overriding objective, the tribunal exercised the power in Rule 47 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013 to dismiss the claim for non-attendance. The judgment does not determine the substantive complaints on their merits.

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.
