Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal struck out the complaint of unfair dismissal. It had written to the claimant on 05 March 2021 giving him an opportunity to make representations or request a hearing on why the complaint should not be struck out.
The reason identified was that s.108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires not less than two years' service for an unfair dismissal complaint, and the claimant had been employed by the respondent for less than two years. The claimant failed to make representations, or sufficient representations, and did not request a hearing, so the complaint was 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.
