Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal recorded that the claimant complained of unfair dismissal. It referred to section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996, which requires at least two years' service to bring an unfair dismissal complaint.
The tribunal found that the claimant had been employed by the respondent for less than two years and was therefore not entitled to bring the unfair dismissal complaint. It also stated that the claimant had not given an acceptable reason, despite being given the opportunity, why the complaint should not be struck out. The judgment says the claimant's other complaints are not affected.

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.
