Claimant v Cordia Services LLP
Outcome
Individual claims
Claim struck out under rule 38(1)(d) for non-pursuit after the claimant failed to provide written reasons by the deadline of 12 March 2025 or request a hearing to explain why the claim should not be struck out.
Facts
The claimant, Ms S Paterson, brought a claim against Cordia Services LLP and Glasgow City Council in 2018. On 26 February 2025, the Tribunal gave the claimant until 12 March 2025 to provide written reasons or request a hearing to show why the claim should not be struck out. The claimant failed to respond or comply with this deadline.
Decision
The Tribunal struck out the claim under rule 38(1)(d) of the Employment Tribunal Procedure Rules 2024 on the grounds that the claim had not been actively pursued. The claimant failed to provide acceptable reasons why the claim should not be struck out or to request a hearing.
Practical note
A claimant must actively pursue their claim and respond to tribunal directions, or risk having the claim struck out for non-pursuit even years after filing.
