Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

The tribunal struck out Ellie Johns's complaint of unfair dismissal against R and R Country. It found that she had been employed by the respondent for less than two years. Under section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996, she lacked the qualifying service required to bring that complaint.

The claimant had been given an opportunity to explain why the complaint should not be struck out but had failed to give an acceptable reason. The judgment expressly left her other complaints unaffected. No monetary award 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.
