The appellant appealed a summary judgment decision dismissing his wrongful dismissal claim.
The motion judge found that the appellant had resigned from his employment, rejecting his argument that he only resigned as an officer and director.
The Court of Appeal upheld the decision, noting that the appellant had signed a full and final release of all claims, including as an employee, and that the share purchase agreement did not contemplate continued employment.
Applying the deferential standard of review for summary judgment from Hryniak, the Court dismissed the appeal and awarded costs to the respondent.
