(MasTec) and filed a Complaint in Montana’s Thirteenth Judicial District Court, Yellowstone County, against MasTec alleging violations of the Montana Wrongful Discharge From Employment Act (WDEA). The District Court granted MasTec’s Motion to Dismiss on the grounds that Montana lacked subject matter jurisdiction to adjudicate Burchett’s claim and that Montana’s WDEA did not apply. Burchett appeals. We reverse and remand to the District Court.
