Mr S Ali v Corps Security (UK) Ltd: 6006234/2024
JUDGMENT
The claim is struck out.REASONS
[1]The claimant failed to comply with the orders of the tribunal to provide further information and a schedule of loss. The tribunal wrote to the claimant on 10 January 2025 notifying the claimant that he must immediately comply with the overdue orders. The claimant did not comply.[2]By letter of 17 January 2025, the tribunal notified the claimant that Rule 38 of the Employment Tribunal Procedure Rules 2024 provides that the tribunal may strike out all or part of a claim on grounds including non-compliance with an order or that the claim has not been actively pursued. It gave the claimant until 31 January 2025 to make representations as to why the claim should not be struck out on either or both of these grounds. It stated that failure to respond may result in the claim being struck out.[3]The claimant has not responded. The claimant therefore remains, despite warning, in breach of the tribunal orders and is not actively pursuing his claim. There is no good reason before us as to why the claimant has not complied and the prejudice to the respondent in the claim continuing in these circumstances is considerable.[4]The claim is therefore struck out on both of these grounds. Case No: 6006234/2024[5]The final hearing listed for 1-8 October 2025 is vacated and will not take place.
