Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt the open preliminary hearing on 27 January 2020 before Regional Employment Judge Taylor, the claimant did not attend and had not communicated with the tribunal or the respondent about his absence. The respondent, represented by Ms C Barlow, said the claimant had taken no action to progress the case after the earlier preliminary hearing on 12 July 2019.
The tribunal recorded that, following the order made on 12 July 2019, the claimant had been given an opportunity to comply with case management orders by 9 August 2019 in preparation for the final hearing listed for March 2020. Having considered the documents and the respondent's representations, the tribunal struck out the unfair dismissal claim under Rule 37 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013 because the claimant had not complied with the tribunal's order and had not actively pursued the claim.

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.
