Agosta v. Astor, 4th. Dist. No. D04220
This ruling continues contouring the doctrine of at-will employment and its relation to contract-relationship torts. Unlike the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, which does not lie when an at-will employee is terminated, the employer cannot avoid tort liability for fraudulent inducement just because the employee's relationship with the employer is at-will.
