Norton Tool and Constructive Dismissal

The Court of Appeal has overturned the EAT (see summary of the EAT decision) in Stuart Peters v Bell, holding that the Norton Tool principle does not extend to constructive dismissal, and so a constructively dismissed employee must give credit for sums earned from other employment during the notice period.

For more detail, I recommend the summary of the Court of Appeal's decision on emplaw.co.uk (who tipped me off about this decision - thank you).
