Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt a preliminary hearing on 10 November 2022, Employment Judge Illing found that Mr C Tydeman did not have two years' continuous service for the purposes of s.108(1) of the Employment Rights Act 1996. The judgment records that he had not provided any reason that might fall within an exception under s.108(3) ERA 1996.
On that basis, the tribunal held that it had no jurisdiction to hear the unfair dismissal complaint. The judgment states that, insofar as the tribunal had jurisdiction, the claim was dismissed.

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.
