Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMiss L Hanson brought a claim of unfair dismissal against Alun little. The tribunal found that section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 required at least two years' service to present an unfair dismissal complaint, and that the claimant had been employed for less than two years.
On that basis, the tribunal held that the claimant was not entitled to bring the proceedings. It also recorded that the claimant had been given an opportunity to explain why the complaint should not be struck out, but did not provide an acceptable reason. The claim was therefore struck out.

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.
