Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningLars Winzer's claim against IW Group Services (UK) Ltd was struck out. The Tribunal wrote to Winzer on 12 January 2026 warning that it was considering striking out the claim under Rule 38 of the Employment Tribunal Procedure Rules 2024. The stated grounds were that the claim had no reasonable prospect of success and that Winzer had not complied with the Tribunal's order dated 04 August 2025, particularly paragraphs 6, 7 and 8.
The letter gave Winzer an opportunity to explain why the claim should not be struck out or to request a hearing. He did not reply. Employment Judge Lancaster found that the Rule 38 grounds applied and that striking out the claim accorded with the overriding objective in Rule 3. The judgment was approved on 28 April 2026. It does not identify individual causes of action or record a monetary award.

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.
