EMPLOYMENT TRIBUNALS (SCOTLAND) Case Number: 8000376/2023 L Matthews
Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Employment Tribunal for Scotland struck out the claim under rule 37 of the Employment Tribunals (Constitution and Rules of Procedure) Regulations 2013. The stated grounds were non-compliance with the Rules of Procedure within rule 37(1)(c) and that the claim had not been actively pursued within rule 37(1)(d).
The tribunal recorded that on 18 October 2023 it gave the claimant an opportunity to provide written reasons by 25 October 2023, or to request a hearing to consider why the claim should not be struck out. The claimant did not provide an acceptable reason and did not request a hearing, and the tribunal therefore struck out the claim. The judgment does not record any monetary award.

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.
