Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a preliminary hearing before Employment Judge T Vincent Ryan on 7 May 2019 in Liverpool. The claimant, Mr M Frankel, was present as a litigant in person. The respondent, Taylor & Aitchison Limited, was absent but attendance was excused.
The Tribunal dismissed the claimant's unfair dismissal claim. It held that he was not eligible for protection against unfair dismissal because of his length of employment, and therefore the Tribunal had no jurisdiction to hear that claim.
The judgment also records that the claimant's other claims were postponed to 16 July 2019 and that case management orders were made in relation to them. No remedy was awarded in this decision.

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.
