How can I over ride the Employment Agreement.

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 30 June 2010 This query is : Resolved 
I was employed in a company and was executed an Agreement of Contract stating that I should work for a period of 5 years etc., terms and conditions. But after a period of 2 ½ years, I got a good opportunity in a MNC. I informed the same to my company, but the company insisting me to pay liquidated damages as per the clause, as mentioned in the said agreement. I requested the company to pay the said amount on monthly basis; accordingly I have given post-dated cheques for the said sum.

Since my financial position is not permitted to pay the monthly installments, 5 monthly cheques were returned and thus the company has filed five individual Cheques bounce cases against me.

In this (1) how I could avoid to face such cases and such damages. (2) how can I override the above said Agreement of Contract. Plz. Clarify me in detail.

When the company has filed five cheque bounce cases, it has to withdraw all the cases against you and then arrive at amicable settlement. The companies would not so easily yield to settlement especially when the criminal cases are filed.

It is better you manage to arrange for funds and clear of the mess. Cheque bounce cases may you land in trouble and spoil your career.
