Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis is a procedural judgment dated 24 October 2023 in which Employment Judge L Clarke struck out the respondent's response in case 2303124/2022. The Tribunal had written on 1 August 2023 giving the respondent an opportunity to explain why the response should not be struck out on the basis that it had not been actively pursued, or to request a hearing.
The respondent did not make written representations, did not make any sufficient representations, and did not request a hearing. On that basis, the Tribunal struck out the response under rule 37. The judgment does not determine the merits of the claimant's underlying claims.
The Tribunal recorded that the respondent remained entitled to notice of any hearings and decisions on that part of the case, but would only be entitled to participate in any hearing to the extent permitted by the Employment Judge.

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.
