DiPlacido v. GTE North Inc.

Pennsylvania Court of Common Pleas, Erie County

Decided June 8, 1995No. 1200-A-1991Published

1Opinion of the Court

LEVIN, J.,

Before the court is a motion for summary judgment brought by the defendants, GTE North Incorporated and GTE Telecommunications Marketing Corp., a/k/a TM Corp. Plaintiff, William S. DiPlacido, brought this action for wrongful discharge based on defendants’ alleged breach of an employment contract, by failing to abide in good faith to the terms of two separate company policies. Defendants moved for summary judgment contending that no employment contract existed and that no other exception to at-will employment applied, thus plaintiff’s cause of action for wrongful discharge must fail.
