Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMr I Johnson did not attend the preliminary hearing listed for 21 March 2023, and no explanation for his non-attendance had been provided. The tribunal recorded that he had not communicated with the tribunal or the respondent since 25 October 2022 and had not responded to several communications from the respondent, including a request on 15 March 2023 to agree or amend the case management agenda.
Having made practicable enquiries and found no explanation for the absence, Employment Judge Howard exercised the power under Rule 47 of the Employment Tribunals (Constitution and Rules of Procedure) Regulations 2013 and dismissed the claim. The judgment states that the claimant’s claims of Race Discrimination, Breach of Contract and Unlawful Deduction from Wages were dismissed, and that the hearing fixed for 24 to 26 June 2024 would not take place. The judgment records no merits findings and no remedy award.

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.
