JUDGMENT

[1]The claims made in this case are all dismissed on their withdrawal by the claimant but in relation to the claims made in the law of contract on the basis that he intends to pursue a claim for damages for breach of contract and/or sums due under one or more contracts in a county court or the High Court, and therefore on the basis that the claimant is not, merely because he has withdrawn the claims made in this case, precluded from pursuing a claim in a county court or the High Court on a factual basis on which the claims made in this case were pursued under the law of contract.[2]The claims made in this case were unreasonably brought and pursued within the meaning of rule 74(2)(a) of the Employment Tribunal Procedure Rules 2024 and the claimant must pay the respondent £500 by way of a contribution to the respondent’s costs incurred in defending those claims.
