Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Claimant complained of unfair dismissal. The tribunal recorded that section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires a claimant to have not less than two years' service to bring that complaint.
The tribunal found that the Claimant had not established that she was employed by the Respondent for two years or more. It also recorded that she had not given any reason, despite being given the opportunity, why the complaint should not be struck out.
Accordingly, the unfair dismissal complaint was struck out. The judgment stated that the Claimant's other complaints were not affected by this judgment, but did not identify or decide those complaints.

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.
