Transport
Decided without a hearing
Before
JUDGE HARRIS
Between
EMRAN AHMED
Appellant
and
THE REGISTRAR OF APPROVED DRIVING INSTRUCTORS
Respondent
Decision: The appeal is struck out under rule 8(3)(a) for non-compliance with a Tribunal direction.
REASONS
The Appellant lodged an appeal using the GRC1 form on 9 February 2026. The appeal was incomplete as the Appellant did not include a copy of the decision notice they sought to challenge and a number of pages of form GRC1 were missing.
By Directions and email dated 12 February 2026 the Appellant was required to provide a completed form GRC1 and copy of the Decision Notice that they wished to challenge to the Tribunal within 28 days. The Appellant provided a complete form GRC1 which was received by the Tribunal on 23 February 2026 but did not comply with that Direction in relation to the Decision Notice.
By Directions dated 27 February 2026, the Appellant was directed by 13 March 2026 to provide a copy of the Decision Notice that they wished to challenge to the Tribunal.
The Appellant was directed to note that failure to comply with the Direction could lead to the Tribunal striking out the appeal for failure to comply without further direction.
The Appellant failed to comply with the Direction dated 27 February 2026 and accordingly there are grounds to strike out the appeal.
