Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMrs M Gillespie's equal pay claim against Falkirk Community Trust was listed before Employment Judge F Eccles in Glasgow. On 14 February 2020 the tribunal 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 claimant did not give an acceptable reason why the claim should remain in place and did not request a hearing. The tribunal therefore struck out the claim under rule 37 of the Employment Tribunals (Constitution and Rules of Procedure) Regulations 2013 on the basis that it had not been actively pursued under rule 37(1)(d). No remedy was awarded.

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.
