The appellant appealed the dismissal of his claim for common law severance damages for wrongful dismissal.
The central issue was whether the trial judge erred in limiting the appellant's entitlement to the minimum required by the Employment Standards Act based on a termination clause in his employment contract.
The Court of Appeal held that the clause was unambiguous, not void at law, and supported by consideration given the appellant's promotion and enhanced remuneration.
The appeal was dismissed.
