Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claimant, Mr I Singh, brought an unfair dismissal complaint against Qerim Aliaj. The tribunal 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 did not satisfy the qualifying service requirement, the tribunal decided that he was not entitled to bring the unfair dismissal complaint. It also recorded that the claimant was given an opportunity to explain why the complaint should not be struck out, but did not give an acceptable reason.
The judgment therefore struck out the unfair dismissal complaint. The tribunal stated 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.
