Mr J Graham v Castleview Group Training Ltd: 2503794/2019
JUDGMENT
These claims are struck out.REASONS
[1]Not only did the claimant fail to attend a hearing of which he had received notice, he filed to comply with the order to set out in writing the remedy he was seeking.[2]The claimant’s explanation is that he did not read the Tribunal correspondence carefully. While the Tribunal may be sympathetic regarding his circumstances, they do not begin to explain why the claimant did not re-visit the Tribunal letter or address his mind to the claim. Far from his non-attendance being something which was beyond his control, he simply took no action to progress his claim.[3]The claimant has not provided any evidence to support his explanation for his non-attendance and has, therefore, not complied with the order of 28 January 2020.[4]In the circumstances, the claims are struck out pursuant to Rule 38 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013.
