Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal sat at Leeds on 27 November 2019 before Employment Judge Lancaster. Mr J Williams was represented by his mother, Mrs H Williams, and Soul Coffee House Limited was represented by Mr S Chowdhury, solicitor. The only complaint recorded in the judgment was unfair dismissal.
The tribunal dismissed the unfair dismissal complaint. It held that it had no jurisdiction to hear such a claim because the claimant did not have 2 years' continuous employment. No remedy was awarded, and the judgment records no separate findings on compensation or any other heads of loss.

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.
