Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMr Chris Poole did not attend the video hearing on 9 October 2024 and did not contact the tribunal to explain his absence. The tribunal also telephoned him, but there was no reply.
Employment Judge Bright recorded that there was no indication on the tribunal file of compliance with the tribunal's orders and no indication that the claimant had actively pursued his claim since presenting it or intended to attend the hearing. Having considered the information available and made all practicable enquiries about the claimant's absence, the tribunal dismissed the claim under Rule 47 of Schedule 1 of the Employment Tribunals (Constitution and Rules of Procedure) Regulations 2013.

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.
