Report Link New York State's Highest Court Declines Reinterpretation of Employment At-Will Doctrine.
Jackson Lewis LLP - February 25, 2008
It is well-established that an at-will employment relationship can be terminated at any time for any lawful reason. However, this long-standing principle did not deter five at-will employees, fired in the aftermath of a merger they allegedly were assured would not occur, from pursuing a lawsuit against their employer. Describing the plaintiffs’ case as “at bottom an alleged breach of contract in the guise of a tort,” the New York Court of Appeals rejected the employees’ novel argument that a claim of fraudulent inducement to join and remain with an employer should modify the at-will employment doctrine.
