The claimant was ordered to provide further particulars by 4pm on 02 November 2024 but failed to do so. The tribunal concluded the claim was not being actively pursued.
Facts
The claimant brought claims for unfair dismissal, disability discrimination, and unlawful deduction of wages against his former employer Going Social Ltd. Following a preliminary hearing on 09 October 2024, Employment Judge Andrews ordered the claimant to pay a deposit of £100 for each of the unfair dismissal and disability discrimination claims. The claimant was also ordered to provide further particulars regarding the unpaid wages claim by 02 November 2024.
Decision
The tribunal struck out all three claims. The unfair dismissal and disability discrimination claims were struck out under rule 40(4) because the claimant failed to pay the required deposits. The unpaid wages claim was struck out because the claimant failed to provide the ordered further particulars and was not actively pursuing it.
Practical note
Failure to comply with deposit orders or tribunal case management orders (such as providing further particulars) will result in claims being struck out for non-pursuit.
