Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal struck out the claim under rule 37 of Schedule 1 to the Employment Tribunals (Constitution and Rules of Procedure) Regulations 2013, on the ground that it had not been actively pursued under rule 37(1)(d).
After the claimant's solicitor withdrew from acting, the Tribunal wrote to the claimant asking for his intentions about the future conduct of the proceedings. No response was received, including after a reminder. On 31 May 2017, the claimant was given until 14 June 2017 to provide written reasons why the claim should not be struck out or to request a hearing.
The claimant did not provide an acceptable reason why strike-out judgment should not be made and did not request a hearing. The Tribunal therefore struck out the claim.

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.
