Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Employment Tribunal struck out the claim brought by K Pender against LPC Invest Limited (in compulsory liquidation). The judgment records that the respondent company was in compulsory liquidation and that the permission of the court had not been obtained for the proceedings to be instituted or continued as required by the Insolvency Act 1986.
The tribunal also noted that on 1 May 2025 the claimant was given 14 days to provide written reasons why the claim should not be struck out for not having been actively pursued. The claimant did not provide an acceptable reason. On that basis, the tribunal struck out the claim. No merits findings or compensation award were made.

1 finding recorded| Claim type | Issue or finding | Outcome | Protected characteristic | Award |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Other | The judgment does not determine the underlying merits of the pleaded claim(s). It strikes out the claim because the respondent is in compulsory liquidation and permission of the court had not been obtained, and because the claimant did not give an acceptable reason after being invited on 1 May 2025 to explain why the claim should not be struck out for non-pursuit. | 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.
