Donn Milton, Dr. v. Iit Research Institute
Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit
1Opinion of the Court
Affirmed by published opinion. Chief Judge WILKINSON wrote the opinion, in which Judge HAMILTON and Judge MICHAEL joined.
OPINION
WILKINSON, Chief Judge:
Donn Milton’s wrongful discharge action against his former employer, IIT Research Institute (IITRI), raises two legal issues: the choice of law to govern Milton’s claim and the viability of his claim under that law. Under the applicable choice of law rule, Maryland law applies. And Maryland’s ¿ause of action for wrongful discharge is not available on these facts. We thus affirm the judgment of the district court dismissing Milton’s claim.
