Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal struck out the claim under rule 37 of the Rules contained in Schedule 1 of the Employment Tribunals (Constitution and Rules of Procedure) Regulations 2013. The stated ground was that the claim had not been actively pursued, in terms of rule 37(1)(d).
The reasons record that on 9 March 2020 the Tribunal gave the claimant an opportunity either to provide written reasons by 23 March 2020 or to request a hearing to consider 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. No remedy was awarded or assessed.

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.
