Mr Sujith Manuel v Netduma Limited RECORD of a PRELIMINARY HEARING — 2024

At a preliminary hearing before Employment Judge M Ord sitting alone, the Tribunal ordered the claimant to pay the respondent 1250 pounds by way of a costs order. The order was made in relation to the claimant's unreasonable conduct and failure to comply with earlier orders of Employment Judge M Warren, which led to a hearing before Employment Judge Forde on 25 August 2023 being ineffective.

The document also recorded case management reminders, including communication requirements, the parties' obligation to assist the Tribunal, possible consequences for non-compliance with orders, and the possibility of a financial penalty if the Tribunal later determined that the respondent had breached any rights to which the claim related. No substantive employment claims were determined in this order.
