Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal struck out the complaint of unfair dismissal. It had previously written to the claimant on 22 September 2022 giving an opportunity to make representations or request a hearing on why the complaint should not be struck out because the claimant had less than two years' service and therefore could not make a claim under section 108 Employment Rights Act 1996.
The Tribunal acknowledged the claimant's letter dated 27 September 2022 but found that the claimant had not made sufficient representations as to why strike out should not occur. It stated that the claimant's claim in respect of constructive dismissal would be considered under the Equality Act 2010 at a case management hearing on 19 December 2022, and that the remaining claims remained listed.

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.
