Description
Following a bench trial, the district court found that defendant-appellant, Skylark Meats, Inc., breached its contract of
employment with plaintiff-appellee, Marvin E. Stiles, by discharging him without good cause, and entered judgment in favor
of Stiles in the sum of $48,000. In this appeal from that judgment, Skylark Meats assigns five errors, which may be summarized
as challenging the district court's findings that (1) there was no good cause for the discharge and (2) Stiles made a reasonably
diligent effort to obtain other employment. We affirm. Skylark Meats is a corporation in the business of preparing, packaging, and selling meat, fish, and poultry. Stiles began
work for Skylark Meats in July 1977, managing its meat-processing room. After Stiles had been working for Skylark Meats for
almost 2 1/2 years, the parties, on December 31, 1979, entered into a written employment agreement. The agreement provided
in relevant part that Stiles was to serve as the manager of Skylark Meats' processing room at a salary of $46,800 per year
and that Stiles could terminate his employment at any time upon notice, but that Skylark Meats could terminate Stiles' employment
"only for breach of the terms [of the agreement] by Stiles or for other good cause." Stiles' salary was increased during the
course of his employment, so that at the time of his discharge on February 12, 1986, he was earning $53,560 per year.
