Claimant v Monarch Aircraft Engineering Limited
Outcome
Individual claims
The claims were struck out for failure to actively pursue them. The claimants were given an opportunity by the tribunal on 28 November 2023 to make representations or request a hearing, but they failed to respond or provide sufficient representations.
Facts
Three claimants (Mr R Mills, Mr M Hester, and Mr M Haselum) brought claims against Monarch Aircraft Engineering Limited in late 2019. The tribunal issued a letter on 28 November 2023 giving the claimants an opportunity to explain why the claims should not be struck out for failure to actively pursue them. The claimants failed to respond or provide sufficient representations.
Decision
Employment Judge Quill struck out all three claims on 9 January 2024. The tribunal determined that the claimants had not actively pursued their claims and had failed to respond to the tribunal's invitation to make representations or request a hearing.
Practical note
Claimants must actively pursue their claims and respond promptly to tribunal communications, or risk having their claims struck out for want of prosecution.
