Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claimant complained of unfair dismissal against Rendall & Rittner Limited. The judgment recorded that section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires not less than two years' service to make an unfair dismissal complaint, and found that the claimant had been employed by the respondent for less than two years.
The tribunal held that the claimant was not entitled to bring the proceedings and that he had not given an acceptable reason, despite being given the opportunity to do so, why the complaint should not be struck out. The unfair dismissal claim was struck out. No remedy or monetary award was recorded.

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.
