Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMr A McAdam brought a complaint of unfair dismissal against Circle Cloud Communications Ltd. The tribunal applied section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 and found that he had been employed for less than two years, so he was not entitled to present an unfair dismissal complaint.
The tribunal also recorded that Mr McAdam had been given the opportunity to explain why the complaint should not be struck out, but he did not give an acceptable reason. The unfair dismissal complaint was therefore struck out. The judgment stated that the claimant's other complaints were not affected by this 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.
