Summary

Ryanair's High Court action against its Chief Operations Officer Peter Bellew has been postponed. The case, scheduled for a Tuesday hearing, was briefly discussed by Ms Justice Leonie Reynolds on Monday, who was informed of an issue preventing the hearing as planned. A new date will be set later in the week. The action concerns Bellew's decision to leave Ryanair in December and join Easyjet as chief operating officer. Ryanair alleges a 12‑month non‑compete clause in his contract, which Bellew denies. The case began in August and parties have agreed to an expedited hearing.
