Miss K Brown v Hearn Care Homes Ltd: 2603167/2020
JUDGMENT
[1]The whole of the claimant’s claim is struck out.[2]The claimant’s claims: 2.1. have no reasonable prospect of success (Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure rule 37(1)(a)); 2.2. the claim has not been actively pursued (Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure rule 37(1)(d)).[3]The reasons are as follows: in a letter dated 24 September 2020 I wrote to the claimant to tell her that her claim for unfair dismissal had been struck out and there remained no other claim. I warned her that the Tribunal proposed to strike out her claim, but gave her a chance to make representations.[4]On 28 September 2020 the claimant said that she would like to claim on a count of fraud for alleged forgery of her signature and dates of employment and hours.[5]On 17 October 2020 Employment Judge Broughton wrote to the claimant to emphasise the Tribunal cannot deal with claims for forgery of signatures alone and asking for details of what the claimant was actually claiming. She set a deadline of 26 October 2020.[6]The claimant has not replied.[7]As things stand the claimant’s claim does raise any complaint that the Tribunal has the jurisdiction to consider. Therefore as it stands it cannot succeed.[8]Also her failure to respond to the letter of Employment Judge Broughton suggests she is not actively pursuing her claim. Page 1 of 2 Case No 2603167/2020
