Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMs F Burrell brought a claim against Green Jelly Fish for a redundancy payment. The tribunal held that section 155 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires two years' employment before an employee has the right to a redundancy payment. It found that the claimant had been employed for less than two years, so she did not have that right.
The tribunal therefore struck out the redundancy payment claim. It also recorded that the claimant had been given the opportunity to explain why the claim should not be struck out, but had not provided an acceptable reason. The judgment states 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.
