Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningBy judgment dated 21 July 2020, Employment Judge Mary Kearns recorded that the claims so far as directed against the Chief Constable of Police Scotland had been withdrawn by the claimants and were dismissed under Rule 52 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013. The order was procedural only and did not contain any findings on the merits of the underlying age discrimination, equal pay, or sex discrimination matters.
The judgment also states for the avoidance of doubt that all claims continued against the Scottish Ministers. No substantive liability findings or remedy assessment were made in this decision, and no monetary award was recorded.

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.
