Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge Batten sat alone at Manchester on 29 February 2024. The claimant did not appear by 10.30 am and the judgment records no explanation for that non-appearance. The respondent attended through its Managing Director, B Shahrour.
In the absence of the claimant, the tribunal exercised its powers under Rule 47 of the Employment Tribunals (Constitution and Rules of Procedure) Regulations 2013 and dismissed the claim. The judgment records no substantive findings on the underlying complaint and no monetary remedy.

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.
