Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal heard a preliminary hearing on 7 January 2020 in Glasgow before Employment Judge R McPherson. The claimant did not attend and had given no prior indication that he would not attend or any reason for his absence. The tribunal recorded that the clerk made unsuccessful attempts to contact him on the morning of the hearing, and that the tribunal had also written to him at the address he had provided on 1 November 2019 to notify him of the hearing and to remind both parties to bring witnesses and documents.

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.
