Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningIn this judgment dated 21 May 2019, Employment Judge Swann dealt only with the claimant’s unfair dismissal complaint. The tribunal held that the claimant had been employed by L And L Distribution Limited 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 the claimant was given an opportunity to explain why the complaint should not be struck out, but did not provide an acceptable reason. The unfair dismissal complaint was therefore struck out.
The judgment states that the claimant’s other complaints were not affected by this decision.

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.
