Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge F Eccles struck out Helen Laurie's claim against North Ayrshire Council under rule 38 of the Employment Tribunal Procedure Rules 2024. The judgment states that the claim had not been actively pursued in terms of rule 38(1)(d).
The Tribunal recorded that on 3 March 2026 the claimant was given an opportunity to provide written reasons by 24 March 2026, or to request a hearing, to address why the claim should not be struck out. The claimant did not give an acceptable reason why judgment should not be made and did not request a hearing, so the Tribunal struck out the claim. No remedy was awarded or addressed.

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.
