The claimant’s other complaints are not affected by this judgment. _____________________________ Employment Judge McTigue Date: 17 June 2024 Case Number: 6001627/2024 EMPLOYMENT TRIBUNALS Claimant: Mr. DCJ Murphy Respondent: Spectrum Dynamics[1]By a letter dated 12th August 2024 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 was not clear that the Tribunal had jurisdiction to entertain any remaining part of the claim and the Claimant had failed to specify what other complaint(s) that he was pursuing that the Tribunal was able to deal with.[2]The Claimant has failed to make representations in writing why this should not be done or to request a hearing.
