Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

By letter dated 8 August 2019, the tribunal gave Mr Blurton an opportunity to make written representations or request a hearing on why his unfair dismissal complaint should not be struck out on the basis that he had not been employed for two years or more. The claimant did not make representations in writing, did not make sufficient representations, and did not request a hearing.

The tribunal therefore struck out the complaint of unfair dismissal. The judgment was sent to the parties on 29 August 2019. No monetary remedy was awarded or addressed in the judgment.

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.
