Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claim, brought by G Colquhoun against Mj's Braehead Ltd (In Creditors Voluntary Liquidation), was struck out by Employment Judge L Wiseman under rule 38 of the Employment Tribunal Procedure Rules 2024. The tribunal recorded that the claim had not been actively pursued within rule 38(1)(d). The judgment does not set out any substantive findings on the merits of the underlying complaint.
The tribunal noted that the claim was presented on 17 September 2025 and served on the respondent on 19 September 2025, but no response was received from the respondent. The tribunal then wrote to the claimant on 24 October 2025 seeking further information, followed by reminder letters on 13 November 2025 and 26 November 2025. No reply was received to any of those letters.
On 7 January 2026 the tribunal gave the claimant an opportunity to provide written reasons by 21 January 2026 or request a hearing to explain why the claim should not be struck out. The claimant did neither. The tribunal therefore struck out the claim on the basis that no acceptable reason had been given for why that judgment should not be made, and no hearing had been requested. The judgment records no 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.
