Mr L Cumner v Pompeo Ltd T/a Ty Newydd Country Hotel: 1600309/2022
JUDGMENT
The claim is dismissed pursuant to Rule 47 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013REASONS
[1]Pursuant to Rule 47 if a party fails to attend or be represented at the hearing the Tribunal may dismiss the claim. This is the Claimant’s claim, he has not attended the hearing nor has any communication been received from him to explain his absence.[2]The Claimant had previously been represented by a Miss Helen Morgan. On the 23 June 2022 Miss Morgan by email advised the Tribunal that she no longer represented the Claimant. The Tribunal file indicates that thereafter all communications from the Tribunal were to the Claimant on the email address he had provided as recorded on the Tribunal file.[3]By the Tribunal’s directions dated 23 April 2022 the Claimant was advised that the hearing of his claim was on today’s date, 28 June 2022.[4]In the same directions, the Claimant was advised that the hearing would take the format of a video hearing and that he would be sent a link for the hearing. The Claimant was sent that link on 23 June 2022.[5]I am satisfied that the Claimant had notice of today’s hearing and has chosen not to attend or to participate. Judgment – Rule 47 Case No: 1600309/2022[6]There has also been no attendance by any person on behalf of the Respondent. Again, I am satisfied that the Respondent was aware of this hearing and has decided not to send a representative.[7]In making the decision to dismiss the claim I have considered Rule 2 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013.
