Case Notes

Does not bar common law remedies; exclusive remedy for constructive discharge claim based on sexual harassment. 634 F. Supp. 684.

If plaintiff was alleging public policy wrongful discharge claim based on Parnar v. Americana Hotels, Inc., and §378-32(2), plaintiff's claim was barred, since this chapter provided sufficient remedy for its violation. 938 F. Supp. 1503.

Plaintiff's resort to a possible common law action of violation of public policy barred, where plaintiff was making claims of retaliation through wrongful denial of promotion based upon § [sic] 378; that type of claim was analogous to a wrongful discharge claim and § [sic] 378 provided a sufficient remedy for retaliation. 75 F. Supp. 2d 1113.
