Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge Gall struck out Mrs L Stewart's claim against First Direct under rule 37 of the Employment Tribunals (Constitution and Rules of Procedure) Regulations 2013. The reason given was that the claim had not been actively pursued within rule 37(1)(d).
The tribunal recorded that the claimant had been given an opportunity to provide written reasons by 8 August 2019, or to request a hearing on whether the claim should not be struck out. The claimant did not provide an acceptable reason and did not request a hearing, so the tribunal struck out the claim. No remedy was awarded.

| Working time regulations | Struck out under rule 37 of the Employment Tribunals (Constitution and Rules of Procedure) Regulations 2013 because the claim had not been actively pursued under rule 37(1)(d). The extracted text states that the Tribunal gave the claimant an opportunity on 25 July 2020 to give written reasons by 8 August 2019 or request a hearing, which appears inconsistent with the judgment date and may be an OCR/date extraction error. | Struck out | — | — |

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.
