Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a short strike-out judgment in Mr C Bates v Rapid Steel Decking UK Limited (In Compulsory Liquidation). The tribunal recorded that by a letter dated 09 December 2019 it had given the claimant an opportunity to make representations, or to request a hearing, on why the claim should not be struck out for not having been actively pursued.
The claimant did not make written representations, or did not make any sufficient representations, and did not request a hearing. On that basis the tribunal struck out the claim under rule 37. No substantive findings on the merits of the underlying claim were made and no monetary award was recorded.

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.
