Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal considered only the claimant's claim for a redundancy payment. It found that Miss J Newman had been employed by Paintology Accident Repair Centre Limited for less than two years, so she did not have the statutory right to a redundancy payment under section 155 of the Employment Rights Act 1996.
The claimant was given an opportunity to explain why the claim should not be struck out, but she did not provide an acceptable reason. The tribunal therefore struck out the redundancy payment claim. It recorded that the claimant's other complaints were not affected by this judgment.

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.
