Chambers-Mills v Allied Bakeries: CA 21 Feb 2011

The claimant appealed against the strike out of her case for failing to comply with an order requiring her to submit to medical examination and otherwise to pursue her disability discrimination claim.
Held: The claimant’s further application for an adjournment was denied. There had been consistent and repeated failure to co-operate with the tribunals and the court. The employment ceased in 2005. The respondent was entitled eventually to a decision. The appeal would be decided, and it was refused.
