Facts
Mrs McNicol brought a claim against Glasgow City Council and Cordia (Services) LLP in 2010. The claim was not actively pursued. On 9 January 2025 the tribunal gave the claimant until 23 January 2025 to provide reasons why the claim should not be struck out or to request a hearing. The claimant failed to respond.
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 or request a hearing.
Practical note
Failure to respond to tribunal directions to show cause why a claim should not be struck out will result in the claim being struck out for non-pursuit.
