The appellant, a senior insurance agency employee, appealed the dismissal of her wrongful dismissal claim.
The trial judge found she was dismissed for just cause after deliberately manipulating her own auto insurance policy to avoid paying $4,600 in annual premiums, breaching the duty of utmost good faith.
The Divisional Court dismissed the appeal, finding no palpable and overriding error in the trial judge's conclusion that the misconduct justified summary dismissal.
