Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningBy letter dated 28 August 2019, the Tribunal gave Mrs G Lumsden an opportunity to make representations, or request a hearing, on why her unfair dismissal claim should not be struck out because she did not have two years' qualifying service. The claim against Direct Health was the only claim identified in the judgment.
The claimant's response did not disclose any exception to the qualifying service requirement. On that basis, Employment Judge Clark struck out the claim under rule 37. No remedy was awarded.

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.
