Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claimant, Mr K Moore, brought a complaint of unfair dismissal against Consumate Care Ltd. Employment Judge Ord held that section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 required two years' service before an unfair dismissal complaint could be brought, and found that the claimant had been employed for less than two years.
Because the claimant was not entitled to bring the unfair dismissal complaint, and did not give an acceptable reason when invited to do so for why it should not be struck out, the tribunal struck out the complaint. The judgment states 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.
