A Harvie v Salford City College Group: 6012050/2025
JUDGMENT
The claim is struck out.REASONS
[1]The Tribunal wrote to the claimant on 11 March 2026 warning them that the Tribunal was considering striking out the claim. This was because it appeared to the Tribunal, applying Rule 38 of the Employment Tribunal Procedure Rules 2024, that the claim had not been actively pursued.[2]The letter gave the claimant an opportunity to explain why the claim should not be struck out, or to request a hearing at which to do so. The claimant has not replied.[3]I am satisfied that the grounds for striking out the claim under Rule 38 apply, and that it would be in accordance with the overriding objective in Rule 3 to strike out the claim because Judge Buzzard made a reason decision to consider the strike out and the claimant has not replied when he was given the opportunity to respond. I am convinced that the correct decision is to proceed as Judge Buzzard warned.[4]The claim is therefore struck out.[5]The hearing on 1 June 2026 will not take place. Approved by:
