Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a strike-out judgment on the unfair dismissal complaint only. By letter dated 1 October 2020, the tribunal gave the claimant an opportunity to make representations or request a hearing on why the unfair dismissal complaint should not be struck out because the claimant lacked the necessary qualifying service under section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996.
The claimant did not make sufficient representations and did not request a hearing. On that basis, Employment Judge Brewer struck out the unfair dismissal complaint under rule 37. The judgment states that the claimant's remaining claim(s) remained listed for hearing.

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. See full methodology.
