The claimant’s other complaints are not affected by this judgment. ________________________ Employment Judge Victoria Butler Date: 15 May 2020 Case No:2600998/2020 6.2 Strike out Judgment – claim - rule 37 EMPLOYMENT TRIBUNALS Claimant: Mr B Cerrino Respondent: Lewis Harrison[1]By a letter dated 19 October 2020 the Tribunal gave the claimant an opportunity to make representations or to request a hearing, as to why the claim should not be struck out because it has not been actively pursued.[2]The claimant has failed to make representations in writing, or has failed to make any sufficient representations, why this should not be done or to request a hearing.
