Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe only complaint determined in this judgment was unfair dismissal. Employment Judge Horne recorded that section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires two years' service to bring an unfair dismissal complaint, and found that Mrs H C Carter had been employed by Corpore Ltd for less than two years. On that basis, the tribunal held that she was not entitled to bring the complaint.
The judgment also recorded that the claimant did not give an acceptable reason, despite being given the opportunity to do so, why the complaint should not be struck out. The tribunal therefore struck out the unfair dismissal complaint.
The judgment states that this decision did not affect the remainder of the claim, which was to be considered at a preliminary hearing on 13 August 2019.

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.
