Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge M Kearns struck out the claim under rule 37 of the Employment Tribunals (Constitution and Rules of Procedure) Regulations 2013 because the claim had not been actively pursued within the meaning of rule 37(1)(d). The respondent applied for strike-out on 22 February 2022.
The tribunal wrote to the claimant on 23 February 2022 inviting any comments or objections by 2 March 2022, and again on 10 March 2022 inviting written reasons by 24 March 2022 or a request for a hearing. No reply was received to either letter. The tribunal found that the claimant had failed to provide an acceptable reason why strike-out should not be ordered, and the claim was struck out. No remedy was awarded.

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.
