Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal dealt only with the claimant's complaint of unfair dismissal. It recorded that section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires at least two years' service to bring an unfair dismissal complaint, and found that Miss N Newton had been employed for less than two years.
On that basis, the tribunal held that she was not entitled to bring the unfair dismissal complaint. It also found that she had not given an acceptable reason, despite being given an opportunity to do so, why the complaint should not be struck out. The complaint of unfair dismissal was therefore struck out, and the tribunal noted that the claimant's other complaints were not affected by the 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.
