Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe sole claim was unfair dismissal. The tribunal found that Ms J Graham had been employed by Lakeview Rest Homes Ltd for less than two years, so she was not entitled to bring an unfair dismissal complaint under section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996.
The tribunal also recorded that, despite being given the opportunity, the claimant failed to give an acceptable reason why the complaint should not be struck out. The judgment therefore states that the claim was struck out. The decision was signed by Employment Judge Batten on 30 November 2020 and sent to the parties on 11 December 2020.

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.
