Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal struck out Mr RA Farnhill's claim against Inside Access Limited (sued as Vanessa Laithwaite). The reason given was non-compliance with Employment Judge Shepherd's case management directions in the Tribunal's letter dated 10 March 2020.
By a further letter dated 31 March 2020, the tribunal gave the claimant an opportunity to make representations or request a hearing on why the claim should not be struck out. The claimant did not respond or ask for a hearing, so the tribunal struck out the claim 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.
