Respondent

Mr Kamran Hussain

Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

The tribunal considered the claimant's complaint of unfair dismissal only. It held that section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires not less than two years' service to bring an unfair dismissal claim, and found that the claimant had been employed by the respondent for less than two years.

Because the claimant did not identify any exception to the two-year rule, the tribunal struck out the unfair dismissal complaint. 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.
