Strike Out Application Guide
Summary
A strike out application in the Employment Tribunal can be made by a claimant against a respondent for reasons such as false statements on ET3, unfair appeal processes, mismanagement, and failure to disclose evidence. The application should clearly outline these grounds, supported by relevant documents. Additionally, the respondents behavior may be cited as violating Rule 2 of the Employment Tribunal Rules, which emphasizes fair and efficient case management. Rule 2 also allows for striking out claims or responses that are scandalous, vexatious, or lack reasonable grounds. Understanding these elements can help in effectively presenting a case for striking out a response.Full Conversation
