Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal struck out the claim under rule 37 of the Employment Tribunal Rules on the ground that it had not been actively pursued in terms of rule 37(1)(d).
The reasons given were that the claimant had failed to attend two preliminary hearings, and the clerk received no reply when attempting to contact the claimant using the mobile telephone number on the claim form. On 17 June 2020 the Tribunal gave the claimant until 24 June 2020 to provide written reasons why the claim should not be struck out, or to request a hearing to consider that issue.
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.
