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).
The Tribunal had given the claimant's representative an opportunity on 27 July 2020 to provide written reasons by 10 August 2020, or to request a hearing, to address why the claim should not be struck out. The claimant's representative did not provide an acceptable reason or request a hearing, and 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.
