Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMr N Mines brought a complaint of unfair dismissal against Klarent Hospitality. The tribunal held that section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 required the claimant to have at least two years' service in order to bring an unfair dismissal complaint, and found that he had been employed for less than two years.
Because the statutory qualifying period was not met, the tribunal held that the claimant was not entitled to bring the proceedings. It also recorded that he had been given an opportunity to give an acceptable reason why the complaint should not be struck out, but did not do so. The claim was therefore struck out.

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.
