Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a strike-out judgment under rule 37 in which the tribunal dealt with the claim as a whole rather than determining any underlying merits issues. By a letter dated 2 June 2020, the tribunal gave Mr J Fisher an opportunity to make written representations or request a hearing on why the claim should not be struck out for having not been actively pursued.
The judgment records that the claimant failed to make representations in writing, failed to make sufficient representations, and did not request a hearing. On that basis, the tribunal struck out the claim. The judgment does not record any substantive findings on liability, remedy, or the nature of the underlying claim beyond the fact of strike out.
The decision was signed by Employment Judge Johnson on 6 July 2020.

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.
