Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal considered the claimant's unfair dismissal complaint in case 2406044/2020 and struck it out. It held that section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires two years' service before an unfair dismissal complaint can be brought, and found that Mr B Moynihan had been employed by Skinnyjab Limited for less than two years.
Claims and outcomes
1 finding recorded| Claim type | Issue or finding | Outcome | Protected characteristic | Award |

| Unfair dismissal | Struck out because the claimant had less than two years' service and was therefore not entitled to bring an unfair dismissal complaint under section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996. The tribunal noted the claimant was given an opportunity to explain why the claim should not be struck out, but no acceptable reason was provided. | 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.
