POSNER, Chief Judge.
This diversity suit charges breach of an employment contract and related violations of rights conferred by the common law of Illinois, and also violation of Illinois’ Wage Payment and Collection Act, 820 ILCS 115. The district court dismissed the statutory claim, holding the wage payment act inapplicable to the facts alleged in the complaint, 920 F.Supp. 928 (N.D.Ill.1996), and granted summary judgment for the defendants on the remaining counts, holding that there was no contractual or other basis for the plaintiffs common law claims. 949 F.Supp. 1341 (N.D.Ill.1997).
