Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningOn 8 June 2020, at East London Hearing Centre, Employment Judge Massarella considered Ms F. Lakoues's claim against SM Foods Ltd. The tribunal held that she did not have the necessary two-year qualifying period of employment to bring a claim of unfair dismissal.
As a result, the unfair dismissal claim was struck out. The judgment records that the claimant's remaining claims would be determined at a final hearing in due course. No remedy was awarded in this judgment.

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.
