Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal struck out the claim under rule 37 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013 on the ground that it had not been actively pursued within rule 37(1)(d). The judgment does not determine the merits of the underlying unfair dismissal claim.
The Tribunal recorded that on 25 August 2020 it gave the claimant's solicitor until 8 September 2020 to provide written reasons, or to request a hearing, on why the claim should not be struck out. That direction followed repeated failure to confirm whether the claimant's relatives wished to pursue the claim.
The claimant's solicitor did not reply, give an acceptable reason why strike-out should not be ordered, or request a hearing. The Tribunal therefore struck out the claim. 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.
