Williams v. Thomas
Missouri Court of Appeals
1Opinion of the Court
PARRISH, Judge.
Janice Williams (plaintiff) appeals a summary judgment in favor of K George Thomas, M.D. (defendant). Plaintiff was an employee of defendant. She was discharged. Plaintiff sought recovery contending her discharge was wrongful; that it was in retaliation for reports she made of alleged wrongful conduct by defendant. She claims her employment, under these facts, was protected by the public policy exception to the employment-at-will doctrine that would otherwise have permitted defendant to discharge her at any time. 1 This court affirms.
