Hi. I am representing myself in a employment case against a former employer. The case has previously had a preliminary hearing due to the defendant arguing my claim was unreasonable. Prior to the prelim hearing the defendant had missed several CMO deadline, and I had requested an order as such for costs.
The judge in the hearing agreed I had a case, and had set new deadlines with a case management order. Since then the defendant has failed to provide a bundle and disclose further documents which had been previously requested and that the judge had stated that disclosure or reason for non disclosure had to be supplied by such date.
Neither the defendants bundle or disclosure of further documents have been delivered.
I have requested a barring/cost order. If barring is not ruled, I have requested strike out. Surely without supplying the documents the defendant has zero chance of defending the case? Will the judge accept my request for orders? How can the defendant defend their position?
