Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal did not determine the merits of the underlying employment complaint. It struck out the claim because the respondent company was in compulsory liquidation and the claimant had not obtained the court's permission for the proceedings to be instituted or continued, as required by the Insolvency Act 1986.
The tribunal also recorded that, on 30 November 2020, it had given the claimant 14 days to provide written reasons why the claim should not be struck out for not having been actively pursued. The claimant failed to give an acceptable reason, so the claim was struck out. 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.
