Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal dealt with a complaint of unfair dismissal brought by Mr Y Tang against Sutton Chase Limited. It recorded that section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires not less than two years' service before a claimant can bring an unfair dismissal complaint.
The tribunal found that Mr Tang had been employed for less than two years. It therefore concluded that he was not entitled to bring the unfair dismissal complaint.
The claimant was given an opportunity to explain why the complaint should not be struck out, but did not provide an acceptable reason. The tribunal accordingly struck out the unfair dismissal complaint. It noted that the claimant's other complaints were not affected by 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.
