Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal, sitting in Glasgow before Employment Judge Frances Eccles, dealt with Ms S Johnson's claim against West Dunbartonshire Council. The judgment records that the claim was struck out under rule 37 of the Employment Tribunals (Constitution and Rules of Procedure) Regulations 2013 because it had not been actively pursued within rule 37(1)(d).
On 8 March 2018 the tribunal gave the claimant an opportunity to provide written reasons by 15 March 2018, or to request a hearing to explain why the claim should not be struck out. The claimant did not provide an acceptable reason and did not request a hearing.
The tribunal therefore struck out the claim. The judgment contains no substantive findings on the underlying merits of the equal pay claim and records no monetary award or 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.
