Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt a hearing on 6 September 2023 before Employment Judge Joffe at London Central, with the claimant not attending and not represented and the respondent represented by Ms N Ward, solicitor, the tribunal struck out the claimant's claims. The reason given was that the claims had not been actively pursued, under rule 37(1)(d) of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013.
The extracted judgment records no substantive findings on liability, no remedy assessment, and no written reasons unless requested by a party. It therefore provides only the procedural outcome that the claim(s) were struck out rather than any determination of the underlying disability discrimination issues.

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.
