Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMr S Brammer brought a claim of unfair dismissal against Conservatory Outlet. The tribunal recorded that section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires at least two years' service in order to bring an unfair dismissal complaint.
The tribunal found that the claimant had been employed for less than two years, so he was not entitled to bring the proceedings. It also found that he had not given an acceptable reason, and had not requested a hearing, in response to the issue of strike out. The email of 23 September 2020 did not address the two-years' service point at all.
The claim was therefore struck out. 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.
