Claimant v Lloyds Banking Group
Outcome
Individual claims
Claim struck out for non-pursuit. The tribunal gave the claimant opportunity to make representations or request a hearing on 9 July 2025, but the claimant failed to respond or make sufficient representations, demonstrating failure to actively pursue the claim.
Facts
Ms E Thomas brought a claim against Lloyds Banking Group. On 9 July 2025, the tribunal wrote to the claimant giving her an opportunity to make representations or request a hearing regarding why the claim should not be struck out for failure to actively pursue it. The claimant failed to respond or make any sufficient representations.
Decision
The tribunal struck out the claim because the claimant failed to actively pursue it. Despite being given a clear opportunity to explain why the claim should continue or to request a hearing, the claimant did not respond or provide sufficient reasons to prevent the strike out.
Practical note
Unrepresented claimants must respond to tribunal correspondence and actively pursue their claims, or risk having them struck out for non-pursuit even before the merits are considered.
