JUDGMENT

REASONS

[1]The claimant complains of unfair dismissal.[2]Section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires a claimant to have not less than two years service to make an unfair dismissal complaint.[3]The claimant was employed by the respondent for less than two years.[4]Therefore, the claimant is not entitled to bring these proceedings.[5]Your letter does not explain how the Tribunal might have jurisdiction to hear your claim of Unfair Dismissal in circumstances where you must have 2 years’ service to bring a claim of ordinary Unfair Dismissal.[6]Accordingly, the claim is struck out.
