Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal struck out Soncan Pertev's claim against DFS Trading Limited under Rule 38 of the Employment Tribunal Procedure Rules 2024. It found that the claimant had not complied with the Tribunal's order dated 15 December 2025 and that the claim had not been actively pursued.
The Tribunal had written to the claimant on 9 April 2026, warning that it was considering strike-out and providing an opportunity to explain why the claim should not be struck out or to request a hearing. The claimant did not reply. Employment Judge French was satisfied that the Rule 38 grounds applied and that strike-out accorded with the overriding objective in Rule 3. No remedy was awarded, and the hearing listed for 17 July 2026 was cancelled.

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.
