Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal considered the claimant's unfair dismissal complaint only. It held that section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires at least two years' service to bring an ordinary unfair dismissal claim, and found that the claimant had been employed for less than two years.
Claims and outcomes
1 finding recorded| Claim type | Issue or finding | Outcome | Protected characteristic | Award |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Unfair dismissal | The tribunal struck out the unfair dismissal complaint because the claimant had less than two years' service and therefore did not meet the section 108 ERA 1996 qualification requirement. The reasons record that the claimant was given an opportunity to explain why the claim should not be struck out, but did not give an acceptable reason. | 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.
