Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt Southampton on 26 September 2025, Employment Judge Self heard Miss Sharon Hudd's application under Rule 68 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2024 for reconsideration of Employment Judge Roper's earlier judgment striking out the claimant's claims because she was not actively pursuing them. The claimant did not attend; the respondent was represented by Mr A Korn, counsel.
The tribunal refused the reconsideration application and confirmed Employment Judge Roper's judgment. The decision records that the claimant's claims remained struck out.
The tribunal also found that the claimant had acted unreasonably in the way she conducted the proceedings and ordered her to pay the respondent £1,900 in costs within 28 days of the judgment.

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.
