Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge Hendry struck out the claim under Rule 37 of the Employment Tribunals (Constitution and Rules of Procedure) Regulations 2013 on the ground that it had not been actively pursued within Rule 37(1)(d). The judgment records that the case was listed in Aberdeen and that the respondent was represented by Mr K Howard of Law at Work.
The tribunal gave the claimant an opportunity on 26 November and 9 December 2020 to provide written reasons by 3 and 16 December 2020, 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.
On that basis, the tribunal struck out the claim. No substantive findings were made on the merits of the underlying allegations, and 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.
