Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal recorded a complaint of unfair dismissal by Mr V Pirelli against 800 Club Jason Bruton. It held that section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires two years' service to bring an unfair dismissal complaint, and found that the claimant had been employed for less than two years.
On that basis, the tribunal decided that the claimant was not entitled to bring the unfair dismissal complaint. It also found that, despite being given the opportunity to do so, the claimant had not given an acceptable reason why the complaint should not be struck out, so the unfair dismissal complaint was struck out. The judgment stated that the claimant's other complaints were not affected by the decision.

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.
