Powdrill v Watson
''Powdrill v Watson'' () 2 AC 394 is a UK insolvency law case concerning the administration procedure when a company is unable to repay its debts.
==Facts==
Roger Powdrill was a joint administrator of Paramount Airways Ltd, a short haul aircraft carrier. He wrote to all the employees in the company, including John Watson, saying that the company would keep on paying the employees but was not in any way assuming personal liability. This case was joined with cases where administrative receivers had done the same though making explicit they were not adopting the employee's contracts of employment. This included John Talbot who was in charge of both Leyland DAF Ltd and Ferranti International plc. Mr Watson’s contract was then terminated. He wanted to be paid for his work. He argued that he stood in priority under IA 1986 section 19(5) (see now IA 1986 Sch B1) for wages over a two months’ notice period. In Talbot's case, he simply issued applications asking whether they had in fact adopted the contracts under IA 1986 section 44.
Evans-Lombe J in the High Court () BCC 662 held the contracts were adopted. Dillon LJ, Leggatt LJ and Henry LJ in the Court of Appeal () BCC 172 dismissed the appeals.
