Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt a hearing on 17 May 2024 before Employment Judge Phil Allen, the tribunal dealt with the claimant's case number 2402989/2023, which had previously been dismissed on 1 December 2023 for non-compliance with an unless order. The judgment records that the dismissal was set aside under rule 38(2) of the Employment Tribunal Rules of Procedure because it was in the interests of justice to do so.
The decision does not determine the substantive merits of the underlying employment claims and does not record any monetary award. It is a procedural ruling restoring the claim after the earlier dismissal order was set aside. The written record also states that reasons were given orally and that written reasons would not be provided unless requested in accordance with the note on the judgment form.

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.
