Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal, in a judgment dated 27 October 2023 and sent to the parties on 1 November 2023, struck out Ms J Searle's claim against Capita Retail Financial Services Limited. The reason given was that the claim had not been actively pursued and that the claimant had failed to comply with case management orders.
The Tribunal had previously written on 21 September 2023 giving the claimant an opportunity to make written representations, or to request a hearing, explaining why the claim should not be struck out. The claimant did not make representations in writing, or did not make sufficient representations, and did not request a hearing.
On that basis, the Tribunal ordered that the claim be struck out. The listed hearing for 5, 6 and 7 February 2024 was stated to no longer take place.

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.
