Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis judgment was limited to strike out and costs. Employment Judge Phil Allen struck out Salford City Council's response under rule 37(1)(b) and/or (c) because the tribunal found the proceedings had been conducted unreasonably and the respondent had not complied with tribunal orders.
The tribunal also ordered the respondent to pay fixed costs of £10,772.48. The costs order was made because the tribunal considered the respondent had acted unreasonably in the conduct of the proceedings and/or had caused a postponement of a hearing by making an application less than seven days before the hearing date.

How we got this data
Case essentials (reference, date, judge, venue, country, claim categories) are extracted from the structured metadata gov.uk publishes alongside each decision. Parties and monetary figures are extracted from the judgment PDF text. Key findings and per-claim outcomes require a second extraction pass that is not yet complete for this case — until then, the primary source linked above is the authoritative record.
