Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

The Tribunal struck out the claim. It had written to the claimant on 13 April 2023 giving an opportunity to make representations or request a hearing about why the claim should not be struck out for non-compliance with Tribunal orders and because it had not been actively pursued.

The claimant did not make written representations, did not make sufficient representations, and did not request a hearing. The Tribunal therefore struck out the claim, and the hearing listed for 24, 25, 26 and 27 April 2023 was vacated.

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.
