1. The Appeal is struck out. REASONS
2. On 14 November 2025, Legal Officer Haji directed the Appellant to provide any representations to the Tribunal as to why the Tribunal should not strike out the appeal on the basis that the Appellant has failed their third and final attempt at the instructional ability test, or, confirmation as to whether the Appellant wished to withdraw the appeal, by no later than 28 November 2025.
3. The Appellant was warned that the Tribunal was considering striking out the appeal.
4. The Appellant has not complied with the directions nor responded to the Case Management Directions of Legal Officer Haji whatsoever.
5. Under Rule 8(3), the Tribunal may strike out a case where: (a) the Appellant has failed to comply with a direction which stated that failure by the appellant to comply with the direction could lead to the striking out of the proceedings or part of them; (b) the Appellant has failed to co-operate with the Tribunal to such an extent that the Tribunal cannot deal with the proceedings fairly and justly; or (c) the Tribunal considers there is no reasonable prospect of the Appellant's case, or part of it, succeeding.
5. The tests under Rule 8(3) are met and the appeal is therefore struck out. Signed: Judge Mornington Date: 23 December 2025
