Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claimant complained that he was unfairly dismissed. The tribunal stated that section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires a claimant to have not less than two years' service to bring an unfair dismissal complaint.
The claimant had been employed by the respondent for less than two years. The tribunal found that he was not entitled to bring the unfair dismissal complaint and had not given an acceptable reason, despite being given the opportunity, why it should not be struck out. The complaint of unfair dismissal was struck out; the judgment states that the claimant's other complaints were 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.
