Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

By letters dated 3 and 21 February 2023, the tribunal gave Mr C Coker an opportunity to make representations as to why the claim should not be struck out for lack of active pursuit. The judgment records that the claimant failed to make written representations, or failed to make any sufficient representations, explaining why that course should not be taken.

On that basis, Employment Judge Phil Allen ordered that the claim be struck out. The judgment records no substantive determination of liability and no monetary award.

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.
