Mrs J Murdoch v
Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claimant was employed by the respondent, which went into administration on 15 April 2020. She brought claims for a protective award for failure to consult, redundancy payment, notice pay, arrears of pay and unfair dismissal. The claim was stayed pending consent from the administrators, and the administrators later granted consent for the claim to proceed while disputing the protective award claim.
The tribunal listed the claims for a video hearing on 14 July 2022 and made case management orders requiring the claimant to provide details of the sums claimed, supporting documents and a witness statement. The claimant did not comply with those orders, did not attend the hearing, was not represented, and did not contact the tribunal to explain her absence.
The tribunal found that the claim had not been actively pursued and that it appeared the claimant had decided not to pursue it. The claim was dismissed under rule 47 of the Employment Tribunal Rules of Procedure 2013, which concerns non-attendance at a hearing.

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.
