EMPLOYMENT TRIBUNALS (SCOTLAND) Case Number: 4101457/2016 Ms G France
Respondent
Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal struck out the claim under rule 37 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013 on the ground that it had not been actively pursued, specifically under rule 37(1)(d).
The claimant's solicitors had withdrawn from acting. A strike out warning letter was sent after the claimant failed to respond to a status enquiry asking her to confirm her intentions, but the correspondence was returned because she no longer lived at the address on the ET1. The Tribunal recorded that the claimant had not provided a new address, meaning it could not communicate with her or give notice under rule 37(2). It assumed she no longer wished to pursue the claim.

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.
