Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe judgment records that the claimant's solicitors had withdrawn from acting for her. A strike out warning letter was sent on 15 September 2020 after the claimant failed to reply to the Tribunal's status enquiry asking her to confirm her intention regarding the claim.
The correspondence was returned to the Tribunal Office indicating that the claimant no longer lived at the address provided on the ET1. The claimant had not notified the Tribunal of a new address, leaving the Tribunal unable to communicate with her or give notice under rule 37(2).
In those circumstances, the Tribunal assumed that the claimant no longer wished to pursue the claim and struck it out under rule 37(1)(d) on the ground 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.
