Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal struck out Mr L Kane's claim against Allard Construction Ltd. It found that the respondent company was in administration and that the consent of the administrator or permission of the court had not been obtained for the proceedings to be instituted or continued, as required by the Insolvency Act 1986.
The tribunal also recorded that on 20 December 2020 it gave the claimant an opportunity to provide written reasons why the claim should not be struck out for not having been actively pursued. The claimant did not provide an acceptable reason.
On that basis, the tribunal struck out the claim. No substantive findings on the underlying employment issues were recorded, and no monetary award was made.

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.
