EZELL, Judge.

This appeal presents the issue of whether sufficient evidence was presented to establish that earned commissions were never paid to John Swilley by his former employer, Red Ball Oxygen, Inc. The trial court found that there was not sufficient evidence, and we affirm that decision for the following reasons.

FACTS

In February 1999, John Swilley went to work with Red Ball as an outside salesman and signed an employment agreement with them. Mr. Swilley was paid a monthly commission based on his percentage of sales. On March 30, 2007, Mr. Swilley’s employment was terminated by Red Ball.
