Glad you are feeling better. Out of curiosity, what would be the reason for an employer suing you, assuming you behave with integrity? Did you sign a paper saying you were going to stay N years or deliver X, Y and Z? Never heard of that before.


It was boiling down to badly written contract. It was saying I'd stay with them for X years with Y months notice period if I wanted to leave. When I consulted this with lawyer she said it could be understood as Y months notice period from the time I'd give it (within X years period) - or Y months notice period but not before X years period was over. I learned very important lesson, to always consult documents with lawyer before signing them, even when they look OK at first glance and when you deal with people who you think you know.
