Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a short Scottish Employment Tribunal judgment in which the claim brought by Mr M Barnett against Falkirk Community Trust was struck out. The tribunal recorded that, on 14 February 2020, it gave the claimant an opportunity to provide written reasons by 28 February 2020, or to request a hearing, to explain why the claim should not be struck out.
The tribunal found that the claimant failed to give an acceptable reason why such a judgment should not be made and did not request a hearing. On that basis, the tribunal struck out the claim under rule 37 of the Employment Tribunals (Constitution and Rules of Procedure) Regulations 2013, on the ground that the claim had not been actively pursued within rule 37(1)(d).
The judgment does not contain any substantive determination of the merits of the underlying claim, and it records no monetary award or remedy. The date of judgment is 10 July 2020.

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.
