Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge Robert Gall struck out Mr EH Smith's claim under rule 37 because it had not been actively pursued. The judgment records that the tribunal was sitting in Glasgow and that the order was made on 25 March 2020.
The tribunal had previously given the claimant an opportunity on 17 February 2020 to provide written reasons by 2 March 2020, or to request a hearing to explain why the claim should not be struck out. The claimant did not give an acceptable reason and did not request a hearing, so the tribunal struck out the claim under rule 37(1)(d).

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.
