Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal dealt only with the claimant's unfair dismissal complaint in this judgment. It recorded that Ms N Spruijt had been employed by Code Red Communications for less than two years, and therefore did not satisfy the two-year service requirement in section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 for bringing an unfair dismissal complaint.
The tribunal also noted that the claimant was given an opportunity to explain why the complaint should not be struck out, but did not provide an acceptable reason. On that basis, the tribunal struck out the unfair dismissal complaint.
The judgment stated 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.
