JUDGMENT

The complaint that the claimant was unfairly dismissed is struck out.

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 present an unfair dismissal complaint.[3]The claimant was employed by the respondent for less than two years. Therefore, the claimant is not entitled to bring such a complaint. The claimant has failed to give an acceptable reason, despite being given the opportunity to do so, why the complaint should not be struck out.[4]Accordingly, the complaint of unfair dismissal is struck out. The claimant’s other complaints are not affected by this judgment. ________________________ Employment Judge Batten Date: 26 November 2019
