Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningBy an order sent to the parties on 9 September 2024, the tribunal gave the claimant an opportunity to make representations or request a hearing as to why the claim should not be struck out for not having been actively pursued. The judgment records that the claimant responded on 23 September 2024 saying she was unwell, had been unable to contact her representative, and was liaising with the discrimination team at legal aid.
The tribunal noted that by 2 December 2024 no further correspondence had been received and, so far as the judge could tell, the claimant had taken no further steps. The intended final hearing was then only a month away. In those circumstances, Employment Judge Anstis struck out the claimant's claim on the basis that it had not been actively pursued.

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.
