Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal dealt only with the claimant's unfair dismissal complaint. It found that section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires not less than two years' service to bring such a complaint, and that Mrs R Allcock had been employed by Crewe Burger Trading Limited for less than two years.
On that basis, the tribunal concluded that the claimant was not entitled to bring an unfair dismissal complaint. It also recorded that she had been given the opportunity to explain why the complaint should not be struck out, but had failed to provide an acceptable reason.
The judgment therefore struck out the unfair dismissal complaint. It stated that the claimant's other complaints were not affected by this judgment.

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.
