Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

The tribunal struck out Mrs M Rehill's unfair dismissal complaint because section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires at least two years' service and the claimant had been employed for less than two years. The judgment records that she was given an opportunity to explain why the complaint should not be struck out, but did not provide an acceptable reason. The tribunal therefore struck out the unfair dismissal complaint and stated that the claimant's other complaints were not affected by 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.
