Facts

The claimant D Rodger brought proceedings against Stuart Wallice. The Tribunal issued orders on 28 July 2025 and 22 October 2025 which the claimant failed to comply with. The Tribunal wrote to the claimant on 17 November 2025 warning of potential strike out under Rule 38 and offering an opportunity to explain or request a hearing. The claimant did not respond.

Decision

Employment Judge Cadney struck out the claim under Rule 38 of the Employment Tribunal Procedure Rules 2024 for non-compliance with tribunal orders. The judge was satisfied that strike out was consistent with the overriding objective given the claimant's failure to comply with orders and failure to respond to the warning letter.

Practical note

Claimants must comply with tribunal orders and respond to warning letters about potential strike out, or risk their claims being struck out without a hearing.
