Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal recorded that the claimant, Mr J Wiggans, had been ordered at a preliminary hearing on 09 October 2024 to pay a deposit of £100 for each of the unfair dismissal and disability discrimination claims. The deposit order was sent to him on 16 October 2024, but he did not pay it. The tribunal therefore struck out those complaints under rule 40(4) of the Employment Tribunal Procedure Rules 2024.
The judgment also dealt with an unpaid wages claim. The claimant had been ordered to provide further particulars of that claim by 4pm on 02 November 2024, but he did not do so. The tribunal stated that the claim was not being actively pursued. The hearing fixed for 23 to 25 June 2025 was cancelled as a result.
No monetary award was recorded in the judgment, and no remedy was assessed because the claims were disposed of on strike out / non-pursuit grounds.

How we got this data
Case essentials (reference, date, judge, venue, country, claim categories) are extracted from the structured metadata gov.uk publishes alongside each decision. Parties and monetary figures are extracted from the judgment PDF text. Key findings and per-claim outcomes require a second extraction pass that is not yet complete for this case — until then, the primary source linked above is the authoritative record.
