Abstract
The recent decision by Mr John Mowbray QC in Micklefield v SAC Technology Ltd brings into focus the thorny problems inherent within, first, the continuing uncertainty surrounding termination of employment contracts and, secondly, the much more general issue as to the status as well as application of the proposition that a contracting party ought not to be allowed to take advantage of his own wrong. There was a third issue taken in the case with regard to the applicability of the Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977 which will be briefly commented upon.
