Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal did not decide the merits of the underlying dispute. Instead, it struck out Ms M Gallagher's claim under rule 37 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013 on the basis that the claim had not been actively pursued within rule 37(1)(d).
In the reasons, the tribunal recorded that on 4 July 2017 the claimant was given 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 provide an acceptable reason and did not request a hearing.
As a result, Employment Judge Frances Eccles ordered that the claim be struck out. The judgment does not record any award of compensation or any other remedy.

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.
