Decision Text
EMPLOYMENT TRIBUNALS Claimant: Ms T La Respondent: Lewisham Refugee and Migrant Network JUDGMENT The claim is struck out. REASONS 1. The Tribunal wrote to the claimant on 30 August 2025 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 25 February 2025. • The claim had not been actively pursued. 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 to the Tribunal’s letters of 23 December 2024 and 25 June 2025. 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 because it appears that the claimant is not actively pursuing her claim. 4. The claim is therefore struck out. 5. The hearing for 26-29 May 2026 will not take place. Approved by: Employment Judge Lumby Date: 31 March 2026
