Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal struck out the claim under rule 37(1)(d) of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013 because it had not been actively pursued. The reasons state that the respondent company was in administration and that neither the consent of the administrator nor the permission of the court had been obtained to institute or continue the proceedings as required by the Insolvency Act 1986.
On 1 July 2022 the tribunal gave the claimant an opportunity to provide written reasons why the claim should not be struck out. The claimant did not provide an acceptable reason, and the tribunal therefore struck the claim out. The judgment records no substantive determination of the underlying employment claims and no monetary award.

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.
