Description

¶1. This appeal involves an employment contract dispute. Employee James Kernz negotiated a three-year contract with J. L. French Corporation that required the company to pay Kernz's salary and benefits for the remainder of the contract term if the company terminated Kernz without "just cause." Nine months into the contract, French Corporation terminated Kernz and Kernz sued for breach of contract, alleging he was terminated without "just cause." Kernz sought more than $260,000 under the contract damages clause. French Corporation countered that Kernz was terminated for "just cause" and argued in the alternative that, even if it terminated Kernz without just cause, the damages clause was an unenforceable "penalty clause." Following a jury trial in which French Corporation was found liable for termination without just cause, the trial court concluded that the damages clause was enforceable and entered judgment in favor of Kernz. French Corporation appeals from that judgment. Post-trial, the trial court entered an order denying Kernz's motion for pre-verdict interest, which forms the basis of Kernz's cross-appeal.
