Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningBy an order dated 15 January 2020, the Tribunal gave Ms T Westerman an opportunity to make written representations, or to request a hearing, on why the claim should not be struck out. The Tribunal said strike out was being considered because the claim appeared to have no reasonable prospect of success, because the proceedings appeared to have been conducted unreasonably, because Tribunal orders had not been complied with, and because the claim had not been actively pursued.
Ms Westerman did not make the ordered written representations and did not request a hearing. The Tribunal therefore struck out the claim. The judgment is a rule 37 strike-out decision and does not record any substantive findings on the underlying unfair dismissal or breach of contract allegations, or any 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.
