Claimant v Serco Group Plc
Outcome
Individual claims
Claim struck out for non-compliance with Tribunal Orders dated 17th January 2025 and 12th February 2025, and for failure to actively pursue the claim. Claimant failed to make representations or request a hearing in response to the unless order dated 21st February 2025.
Facts
The claimant brought a claim against Serco Group plc in November 2023. The Tribunal issued Orders on 17th January 2025 and 12th February 2025, which the claimant failed to comply with. On 21st February 2025, the Tribunal issued an unless order warning the claimant that the claim would be struck out for non-compliance and failure to actively pursue the claim unless representations were made or a hearing requested.
Decision
The Tribunal struck out the claim on 2nd May 2025 because the claimant failed to respond to the unless order, failed to make any representations in writing, and failed to request a hearing. The claim was not being actively pursued.
Practical note
Claimants must comply with Tribunal Orders and respond to unless orders, or risk having their claims struck out for non-pursuit regardless of the underlying merits.
