Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe only recorded claim was race discrimination by Mr A Akoman-Ehikpa against Mid Kent College and Ashley Ritchie. After a preliminary hearing on 4 November 2019, the tribunal ordered the claimant to pay a deposit of £700.00, and the order was sent to him on 11 January 2020.
The claimant did not pay the deposit. As a result, the tribunal struck out the race discrimination complaint under rule 39(4) of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013. No substantive findings on the merits of the discrimination claim or any compensatory remedy were recorded in this judgment.

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.
