Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal struck out Mrs J Maddison's claim against Gladstones Solicitors. In a letter dated 28 February 2024, the tribunal gave the claimant an opportunity to make written representations or request a hearing on why strike out should not follow, after identifying three issues: failure to comply with case management orders made on 14 August 2023, specifically orders numbered 3 and 4; failure to attend the case management preliminary hearing on 28 February 2024, after notifying the tribunal at 18:39 on 27 February 2024 and not notifying the respondent; and the fact that the claim had not progressed since 14 August 2023 and had not been actively pursued.
The claimant did not make written representations, or did not make sufficient representations, and did not request a hearing. Employment Judge Batten therefore struck out the claim on 11 April 2024. The judgment was sent to the parties on 22 April 2024. No remedy was awarded.

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.
