Case Summary

The claimant's race discrimination claim was dismissed upon withdrawal. The remaining claims for unfair dismissal, redundancy, notice pay, accrued holiday and arrears of pay were struck out because the claimant had less than two years qualifying service and confirmed he was not owed any monies, giving those claims no reasonable prospect of success.

Why this outcome?

No qualifying employment period

The claimant had less than two years qualifying service and consequently could not bring claims for unfair dismissal or redundancy payment. The claimant confirmed he was not owed notice pay, accrued holiday or arrears of pay, meaning those claims had no reasonable prospect of success.
