Jose Mourinho and Chelsea given court date to reach settlement
Eva Carneiro, Chelsea and former Blues manager Jose Mourinho have been given a court date in which they will be able to discuss a possible settlement regarding the former`s claim of constructive dismissal.
The parties involved will attend a private hearing in front of a High Court judge on March 7 where the former Chelsea medic`s lawyers are expected to outline their demands for a settlement.

If an agreement cannot be reached between Carneiro and the Premier League club, the case will go to an employment tribunal, which would take place in June.

The case relates to Carneiro`s exit from the club following a very public falling out with Mourinho.

The then Chelsea manager was furious with Carneiro for coming on to the pitch to treat Eden Hazard during Chelsea`s match with Swansea. Chelsea were already reduced to 10-men and Carneiro`s intervention meant that Hazard had to leave the pitch, temporarily reducing the team to nine players.
