    unset($data[0]); //delete first row
    $data = array_values($data);

Answer 1

Assume that you have the following data set,

$array = [
    [
        'name' => 'not null', 'phone' => 12546
    ],[
        'name' => '', 'phone' => 852147
    ],[
        'name' => null, 'phone' => 96325874
    ],[
        'name' => 'have value', 'phone' => 12546
    ],
];

You can filter the nulled or empty values like several ways :

1-

foreach ($array as $key => &$value) {
    if (empty($value['name']) || is_null($value['name'])) {
        $value = null;
    }
}

$array = array_filter($array);

2-

$newData = [];
foreach ($array as $key => $value) {
    if (!empty($value['name']) && !is_null($value['name'])) {
        $newData[] = $value;
    }
}

3- using array_walk

$newData = [];
array_walk($array, function ($value, $key) use (&$newData) {
    if (!empty($value['name']) && !is_null($value['name'])) {
        $newData[] = $value;
    }
});

4- using array_filter

$newData = array_filter($array, function ($value) {
    if (!empty($value['name']) && !is_null($value['name'])) {
        return $value;
    }
});
