Mr T Bowden v Brookridge Timber Ltd: 1404151/2020
[1]The Claimant failed to attend or be represented at the telephone case management preliminary hearing set down for 1400 today. The Tribunal considered the information available to it. The Bristol Office of the Employment Tribunals contacted the Claimant’s representative (the Claimant’s Mother) by telephone. The Claimant’s Mother declined to attend the hearing and indicated that the Claimant was having second thoughts about pursuing his claim.[2]The Claimant is ordered to write to the Bristol Office of the Employment Tribunals confirming whether or not he wishes to pursue his claim. If the Claimant does not wish to pursue his claims or if no such communication is received on or before 30 April 2021, the Claimant’s claim of automatic unfair dismissal (being, for the avoidance of doubt, the only claim before the Tribunal) shall stand dismissed without further order. Employment Judge Matthews Date: 06 April 2021 Judgment & Reasons sent to the parties: 12 April 2021 FOR THE TRIBUNAL OFFICE
