Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal struck out the claim. It had written to the claimant on 20 January 2020 giving her an opportunity to make representations or request a hearing on why the claim should not be struck out.
The reason given was that the claimant had not complied with Tribunal orders dated 25 June 2019, or with later varied dates for compliance notified on 14 October 2019, and had not replied to a reminder letter dated 14 November. The Tribunal stated that without her compliance a fair trial was not possible.
The claimant made no written representations and did not request a hearing. The claim was therefore struck out, and the hearing listed for 30 March 2020 to 2 April 2020 was cancelled.

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.
