Description
Plaintiff-appellant, Severo A. Chavez, brought suit against his former employer for breach of an express or implied employment contract and for retaliatory discharge. Defendants-appellees are the Manville Products Corporation and Manville Sales Corporation (collectively Manville). Chavez appeals the entry of summary judgment against him on claims sounding in contract, and the entry of a directed verdict against him on the claim of retaliatory discharge. We granted motions from the New Mexico Trial Lawyers Association and from the Association of Commerce and Industry of New Mexico to submit amicus briefs. We affirm the dismissal of the contract claims, but reverse the district court on the question of retaliatory discharge and remand for a new trial solely on that issue.
