Facts

The claimant brought a claim against Cordia Services LLP and Glasgow City Council. On 26 February 2025, the tribunal issued an unless order requiring the claimant to provide written reasons by 12 March 2025 why the claim should not be struck out, or to request a hearing. The claimant failed to comply with this order.

Decision

The tribunal struck out the claim under rule 38(1)(d) of the Employment Tribunal Procedure Rules 2024 on grounds of non-pursuit. The claimant failed to give acceptable reasons why the claim should not be struck out or to request a hearing within the time limit set by the tribunal.

Practical note

Failure to respond to a tribunal's unless order will result in automatic strike-out of the claim for non-pursuit, even without a hearing.
