Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

The Tribunal struck out the claim under rule 37 of the Employment Tribunal Rules on the ground that it had not been actively pursued, specifically under rule 37(1)(d).

The claimant had been given until 22 October 2024 to provide written reasons why the claim should not be struck out or to request a hearing. The Tribunal recorded that the claimant did not give an acceptable reason why judgment should not be made and did not request a hearing, so the claim was struck out.

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.
