Summary judgment motion in an employment case

KATIE WEAVER HARTZOG (Raleigh) recently won a summary judgment motion in an employment case.  The trial court entered summary judgment in favor of the employer on all claims including Plaintiff’s claims of breach of contract and wrongful termination.  She prevailed in arguing that Plaintiff did not have an employment contract because he was an at will employee and his claim for wrongful termination failed because he set forth no evidence of a violation of law or public policy by his former employer.
