Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal recorded that on 10 March 2020 it gave the claimant until 24 March 2020 to provide written reasons, or to request a hearing, to address why the claim should not be struck out.
The claimant did not give an acceptable reason why strike out judgment should not be made and did not request a hearing. The Tribunal therefore struck out the claim under rule 37 on the basis 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.
