Derrick Cyffin Jones T/A The Barley Mow Public House v Beardmore UKEAT/0392/09/DM
Appeal against ruling that the claimant was qualified to claim for unfair dismissal as a TUPE transfer had taken place. The EAT rejected the ET's ruling on the basis that TUPE did not apply. The activities which the claimant conducted were not transferred; she was offered, and took up, a different job with a different employer. The claimant herself could not be regarded as an 'economic entity' as defined in the TUPE regulations, so therefore she failed to show that there was any continuity of employment and she lacked sufficient qualifying employment to enable her to bring her claim for unfair dismissal.

Shanahan v Unite the Union UKEAT/0411/09/DM

Arhin v Enfield Primary Care Trust UKEAT/0296/09/LA
Appeal against finding that claimant had been dismissed by reason of race. The EAT found that the Tribunal showed it had not clearly identified the requirements of the new post or the jobs actually being done by the Claimant and her comparator, without which the finding made (that the reason was not race, but mistake) appeared illogical. Appeal allowed with remission to a fresh tribunal.
