Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

The tribunal dealt only with the claimant's unfair dismissal complaint. It recorded that the claimant had been employed for less than two years, and applied section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996, which requires two years' service before an unfair dismissal complaint can be brought.

Because that qualifying period was not met, the tribunal held that the claimant was not entitled to bring the unfair dismissal complaint. It also noted that the claimant had been given an opportunity to explain why the complaint should not be struck out, but had not given an acceptable reason. The complaint of unfair dismissal was therefore struck out, and the judgment stated that the claimant's other complaints were not affected.

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.
