Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal struck out Mrs L Meskell’s claim under rule 37(1)(d) of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013 on the ground that it had not been actively pursued. The judgment records that she did not attend the preliminary hearing listed for 4 June 2024, and that the judge hearing the case that day was satisfied she was aware the hearing was taking place.
The tribunal then gave her an opportunity on 5 June 2024 to provide written reasons by 19 June 2024, or to request a hearing to consider why the claim should not be struck out. No reply was received, and the claim was therefore struck out. The judgment does not record any substantive liability findings or any monetary award.

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.
