JANA HILL v. MICHAEL GANNON, ET AL.

Posted by: Chandra Williams on Apr 19, 2016

Court: TN Court of Appeals

Attorneys 1:

William Gary Blackburn and Bryant Beatty Kroll, Nashville, Tennessee, for the appellant, Jana Hill.

Attorneys 2:

Nathan D. Rowell, Brian Robert Bibb, Knoxville, Tennessee, and Daniel H. Rader, III, and Daniel H. Rader, IV, Cookeville, Tennessee for the appellees, Michael Gannon, and Luke Collins.

Judge(s): ARMSTRONG

This is a wrongful termination case. Appellant appeals the trial court’s grant of summary judgment on her claims of intentional interference with at-will employment and civil conspiracy on the part of Appellees. Because Appellant has not averred facts sufficient to make out a claim for intentional interference with at-will employment, we affirm the trial court’s grant of summary judgment on that claim. In the absence of an underlying tort, we also affirm the trial court’s dismissal of Appellant’s claim for civil conspiracy. Affirmed and remanded.
