Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal recorded that the respondent company was in administration. It held that neither the consent of the administrator nor the permission of the court had been obtained for the proceedings to be instituted or continued, as required by the Insolvency Act 1986.
On 22 December 2021 the tribunal gave the claimant an opportunity to provide written reasons why the claim should not be struck out for not having been actively pursued. The claimant did not provide an acceptable reason.
For those reasons, the tribunal struck out the claim. No monetary award was made in the judgment, and the extracted text does not identify any further substantive findings on the underlying claims.

The tribunal recorded only that the claim was struck out because the respondent was in administration and neither the administrator's consent nor court permission had been obtained, and because the claimant did not give an acceptable reason after being invited to explain why the claim should not be struck out for non-pursuit. | Struck out | — | — |

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.
