The appeal concerned the interpretation of a short-form employment agreement governing commission entitlement on contracts secured with Bell.
The appellant argued the respondent was not entitled to commissions after leaving employment before the end of 1996.
The court upheld the trial judge’s conclusion that salary compensated ongoing servicing work, while commissions were earned once the Bell contracts were secured, even though the amount could only be calculated at contract end.
The appeal was dismissed with costs.
