EMPLOYMENT TRIBUNALS Claimant: Mr A Atuahene Respondent: RATP Dev London Utd JUDGMENT The claim is struck out. REASONS 1. The Tribunal wrote to the claimant on 20 January 2026 warning them that the Tribunal was considering striking out the claim. This was because it appeared to the Tribunal, applying Rule 38 of the Employment Tribunal Procedure Rules 2024, that  the claimant had not complied with the Order of the Tribunal dated 14 September 2025. 2. The letter gave the claimant an opportunity to explain why the claim should not be struck out, or to request a hearing at which to do so. The claimant has not replied. 3. I am satisfied that the grounds for striking out the claim under Rule 38 apply, and that it would be in accordance with the overriding objective in Rule 3 to strike out the claim. This is because the respondent has attempted to engage with the claimant however the claimant has failed to cooperate. In the circumstances, it is in accordance with the Overriding Objective for the claim to be struck out. 4. The claim is therefore struck out. 5. The hearing on 22 April 2026 will not take place. Approved by: Employment Judge Gumbiti-Zimuto 23 February 2026 JUDGMENT SENT TO THE PARTIES ON 17 April 2026 FOR THE TRIBUNAL OFFICE
