Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMr S Evans brought a single claim of unfair dismissal against TG Commercials Selfdrive. The tribunal held that section 108 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 requires at least two years' service to bring an unfair dismissal complaint unless the claim is for automatically unfair dismissal for a prohibited reason.
The tribunal found that Mr Evans had been employed for less than two years and was not advancing a claim of automatic unfair dismissal. On that basis, it concluded that he was not entitled to bring the proceedings.
Accordingly, the claim was struck out and dismissed. No monetary award was made.

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.
