Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningBy letter dated 27 November 2020, the tribunal gave the claimant an opportunity to make representations or to request a hearing on why the claim should not be struck out for failure to actively pursue it. The claimant did not make written representations, did not make sufficient representations, and did not request a hearing.
On that basis, Employment Judge Victoria Butler struck out the claim under rule 37. The judgment records no substantive determination of the underlying employment claims and no monetary award.

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.
