Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt the preliminary hearing on 3 September 2021, Employment Judge Harrington considered the claimant’s claims of unfair dismissal and redundancy payment. The claimant did not attend. The respondent was represented by Mr D Mold, Counsel.
The tribunal dismissed both claims because it found that the claimant had been employed by the respondent for less than two years. On that basis, it held that it had no jurisdiction to consider either claim. No remedy was awarded.
Because the entirety of the claims was dismissed, the hearing listed for 1 October 2021 was vacated.

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.
