No priority for liability to dismissal damages

In re Leeds United Association Football Club Ltd

“Where administrators adopted the contracts of employment of a company and the company subsequently become liable to pay damages for the wrongful termination of those contracts, the damages were not payable in priority to other expenses since that liability was not within the words ‘wages or salary’.”
