Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAmyrose Benham's complaint of unfair dismissal against Smooth Accounting was struck out. The tribunal recorded that section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires at least two years' service to bring an unfair dismissal complaint and that the claimant had been employed by the respondent for less than two years.
The tribunal found that the claimant was therefore not entitled to bring the complaint and had not provided an acceptable reason, despite being given an opportunity to do so, why it should not be struck out. The claimant's other complaints were not affected by this judgment. No remedy was recorded.

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.
