Esa tribunal adjourned. Two questions

Posts: 2 Newbie
Hi.
On the 19th of this month I had an esa tribunal hearing, I didn't attend because my doctor agreed that it would provoke my anxiety too much. Today I got a letter stating that the tribunal adjourned due to insufficient evidence to make a decision. They have said they will get medical notes from my doctor (she has been sick for almost a month now) I am just wondering can I still claim esa whilst they decide when the next hearing will be? (the letter dodn't state this and it didn't make much sense to me) or do I have to switch to JSA?
Many massive thanks I am confused and stressed by this!!

As the tribunal haven't made a decision yet, you are still entitled the ESA assessment rate.0

I would strongly advise you turn up, if you possibly can. Is there anyone that could take you there?0

Brilliant thank you guys, I am going to try to attend because my mum said they are less likely to award me if I am not there.0
