Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claimant, Ms N Ellis, brought a complaint of unfair dismissal against Grace Haine. Employment Judge Livesey recorded that section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires at least two years' service before an unfair dismissal complaint can be brought.
The tribunal found that the claimant had been employed for less than two years. It also noted that the claimant accepted in correspondence dated 3 November 2022 that an unfair dismissal claim could not be pursued. On that basis, the complaint of unfair dismissal was struck out.
The judgment states that the claimant's other complaints were not affected by this decision. No monetary award was made.

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.
