Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claimant did not attend the hearing on 2 February 2024 and was not represented. The tribunal noted that she had not responded to its letter of 25 August 2023 asking her to confirm what language she required for an interpreter, despite having stated on the claim form that she needed a translator. The tribunal clerk also tried to call the claimant on the mobile number provided in the claim form, but the call did not connect. The respondent said it had had no contact from the claimant since she left work in March 2023.
On that basis, Employment Judge James held that it was not possible to proceed with the hearing in the claimant's absence and that all practicable enquiries had been made to find out why she did not attend. The judgment therefore dismissed the claims pursuant to Rule 47 of the Employment Tribunal Rules of Procedure 2013. No substantive findings on the merits of the underlying claims were made, and no remedy was awarded.

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.
