Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal struck out the claim under Employment Tribunal Rule 38. It had written to the claimant on 19 January 2026 warning that strike out was being considered because the claimant had not complied with case management orders and the claim had not been actively pursued.
The claimant was given an opportunity to explain why the claim should not be struck out or to request a hearing, but did not reply. Employment Judge Woodhead was satisfied that the Rule 38 grounds applied and that strike out was in accordance with the overriding objective in Rule 3.

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.
