Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe judgment records that, following a preliminary hearing on 14 May 2025, the claimant was ordered to pay deposits of GBP 250 as a condition of continuing to advance each of the listed harassment allegations.
The deposit order was sent to the claimant on 17 September 2025 and required payment within 28 days. The claimant did not pay the deposits, and the tribunal did not accept her submission that she had withdrawn all of the harassment complaints.
The tribunal therefore struck out all of the harassment allegations under rule 40(4) of the Employment Tribunal Procedure Rules 2024.

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.
