Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningBy a letter dated 21 October 2022, the tribunal gave Miss C Brown an opportunity to make representations, or to request a hearing, on whether her unfair dismissal complaint should be struck out. The stated basis was that she did not have the qualifying two years' service under section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996, and there were no exceptional circumstances identified that would exempt the qualifying period.
The claimant did not make sufficient representations and did not request a hearing. The tribunal therefore struck out the unfair dismissal complaint. The judgment records no remedy because the claim did not proceed to a merits hearing.

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.
