Facts
The claimant brought a claim against HMP Prison and Probation Service in 2024. The tribunal issued an order on 10 April 2025 which the claimant failed to comply with. The tribunal wrote to the claimant on 27 May 2025 giving an opportunity to make representations or request a hearing as to why the claim should not be struck out for non-compliance and for not being actively pursued. The claimant failed to respond or make sufficient representations.
Decision
The tribunal struck out the claim because the claimant failed to comply with the tribunal order dated 10 April 2025, failed to actively pursue the claim, and failed to respond to the tribunal's letter dated 27 May 2025 inviting representations as to why the claim should not be struck out.
Practical note
Unrepresented claimants must comply with tribunal orders and actively pursue their claims, or risk strike-out for non-compliance and failure to prosecute.
