Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claimant, Miss M Duro, brought a complaint of unfair dismissal against Trend Control System Ltd and Harris Lord Ltd. Employment Judge Gardiner recorded that section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires at least two years' service before a claimant can bring an unfair dismissal complaint.
The tribunal found that the claimant had been employed for less than two years. It therefore concluded that she was not entitled to bring the unfair dismissal complaint and struck that complaint out. The judgment states that the claimant failed to give an acceptable reason, despite being given the opportunity to do so, why the complaint should not be struck out.
The judgment also records 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.
