Question

To the comment by Mr Benn and ducksoup above I would add that I currently represent a pilot accused of breaking a contract with an airline. It is important to remember that this man is innocent unless and until he is proven guilty. One wonders, then, whether "Geoff Hall of Monarch", or any other employer in the Old Boys' network would refuse to employ him while the legal process is in train (perhaps for several years). Would they employ him after found 'not guilty'? Would they immediately offer him employment were the court to find that the airline was the party in breach of contract and not he? Importantly, would they hold in contempt the 'in breach' airline employer in the same way that they apparently hold the 'in breach' pilot?
