Description
BEATTY, JUSTICE. The appellant, Hoffman-La Roche, Inc. ("Roche"), appeals from a judgment of the Etowah Circuit Court entered upon jury verdicts
against it on both a count of breach of an employment contract and a count of fraud. The action had been filed by a former
employee, Hugh Campbell. The jury assessed damages at $150,000. The determinative issue on appeal is whether certain provisions
contained in an employee handbook issued by Roche modified the employment relationship which existed between Roche and Campbell
so as to make the relationship terminable only by compliance with those provisions.
