Case 8003216/2025 · Employment Tribunal
EMPLOYMENT TRIBUNALS (SCOTLAND) Case No: 8003216/2025 & 8000024/2026 Held in Edinburgh via Cloud Video Platform (CVP) on May 2026 Employment Judge M A Macleod Ms S Woodham
The claimant had presented two Employment Tribunal claims, case numbers 8003216/2025 and 8000024/2026, which had been combined. The judgment arose from a Preliminary Hearing held by Cloud Video Platform on 14 May 2026.
The second respondent, The Edinburgh Beer Factory Ltd, applied under Rule 35 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2024 to be removed from the proceedings. Its solicitor submitted that the second respondent had been the transferor in a TUPE transfer and was no longer liable for actions relating to the claimant. The claimant consented to the application.
The tribunal referred to Rule 35(2), which permits removal of a party that appears to have been wrongly included. The tribunal removed The Edinburgh Beer Factory Ltd from the proceedings by consent. The judgment did not determine the substantive claims or record any monetary remedy.
