JUDGMENT

The claim is struck out.

REASONS

[1]The proceedings were stayed in March 2021 because the Respondent company had been dissolved. The Claimant was told that he would need to have it restored to the register and that the Tribunal would write to him in 6 months’ time to find out whether he had done so. His claim might be struck out if he had not applied or his application had been refused. The Tribunal did not hear anything further from him and the Tribunal wrote to him on 21 September 2021 asking him what steps had been taken and warning him that his claim might be struck out.[2]The Claimant replied to say that he could not afford to pay to have the company re-registered and that Mr Dunn was operating a different company and was just trying to avoid paying the Claimant. This is a claim against the company that employed the Claimant, not any other company operated by Mr Dunn. The company that employed the Claimant has been dissolved and the Claimant has not taken steps to have it re-registered. The claim therefore has not been actively pursued and is struck out.
