Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningDaniel Barnes brought proceedings against J & K Global Foods Limited. At the hearing, the claimant did not appear and was not represented. The respondent appeared by solicitor, Ms Hermione Porter.
The tribunal did not determine the underlying merits of the case. It struck out the claimant's claim under Rule 38(1)(d) of the Employment Tribunal Procedure Rules 2024 because the claim was not being actively pursued, and under Rule 38(1)(c) because of non-compliance with previous tribunal orders.
No remedy or compensation was awarded. The judgment contains no findings on liability, and no separate breakdown of any sums was recorded.

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.
