Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal struck out the claim. It had written to the claimant on 15 February 2023 giving an opportunity to make representations or request a hearing on why the claim should not be struck out.
The stated reason was that the claimant had not told the Tribunal that they had obtained the administrator's consent or the court's permission to allow the claim to proceed, as required by the Insolvency Act 1986. The claimant failed to provide the necessary consent or adequate reasons for that failure, so the claim was struck out.

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.
