The plaintiff brought a motion for default judgment against the corporate defendants for constructive dismissal.
The corporate defendants failed to defend the action and were noted in default.
The court found that the deemed admissions and affidavit evidence established liability for constructive dismissal, as the defendants unilaterally changed fundamental terms of employment and locked the plaintiff out of his office.
The court awarded 27 months' notice damages totaling $373,207.83, given the plaintiff's 35-year tenure and executive role, but dismissed claims for aggravated, punitive, and tort damages.
