Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal struck out Ms M Gallagher's claim against North Lanarkshire Council under rule 37 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013 because it had not been actively pursued. The judgment records that on 4 July 2017 the tribunal gave the claimant an opportunity to provide written reasons by 18 July 2017, or to request a hearing to consider why the claim should not be struck out.
The claimant did not give an acceptable reason why the claim should not be struck out and did not request a hearing. On that basis, Employment Judge Frances Eccles held that the claim should be struck out 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.
