Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claimant, Mr M Brown, brought a claim of unfair dismissal against Leversedge Telecom Services Ltd. Employment Judge Clark Date recorded that the claimant had been employed for less than two years, so section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 required qualifying service unless an exception applied.
The tribunal wrote to the claimant on 3 January 2024 warning that the unfair dismissal claim would be struck out for lack of jurisdiction unless written representations were made explaining why it should proceed. The claimant did not respond. The tribunal therefore found that no acceptable reason had been given for the complaint to continue and struck out the unfair dismissal claim.
The judgment states that the other claims were not affected by this decision and would proceed to a hearing on 27 March 2024.

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.
