Claimant v The Royal London Mutual Insurance Society Limited
Outcome
Other
Facts
This was a preliminary hearing to determine the respondent's applications to strike out the claim under Rule 38(1)(b), (c) and (d) of the Employment Tribunal Rules 2025, and for an unless order requiring the claimant to provide specified information. The claimant, Mr Catterall, was unrepresented and appeared in person. The respondent was represented by Mr Fisher, a solicitor.
Decision
The tribunal dismissed both the respondent's application to strike out the claim and the application for an unless order. Both applications were found to be not well founded and failed.
Practical note
The respondent's procedural applications to strike out the claim or impose an unless order were unsuccessful at this preliminary stage, allowing the substantive claim to proceed.
