Description
Plaintiff appeals from a judgment entered in favor of defendants Viking Distributing Company (Viking) and Dorothy Smith, Vikings corporate secretary and plaintiffs supervisor. She assigns error to the trial courts grant of defendants motions for a directed verdict dismissing her claim for breach of contract, and judgment notwithstanding the verdict on her claim of statutory wrongful discharge in violation of ORS 659.410(1), entered after a jury awarded her $141,000 in economic damages and $20,000 in non-economic damages. Defendants cross-assign error to denial of their motion to remove from jury consideration plaintiffs prayer for loss of future earnings and benefits. We reverse on the claim for statutory wrongful discharge and otherwise affirm.
