Precedent Fact

No.94-3125.(D.C. No. 92-CV-1279).United States Court of Appeals,
Tenth Circuit.(May 8, 1995),Kansas. Plaintiff said that Boeing breached the parties'
implied employment contract when it fired him.
Issue Under Kansas law, employment is presumed to
be at will unless an implied contract covering the duration of employment exists.
According to the industry custom, if an implied contract existed. The employee would be able to work until retirement age of 65.
Issue Plaintiff have to prove that the 2 parties
mutually intended to enter into an implied employment contract.
The employee's subjective expectation of continued employment is not enough.
Argument Plaintiff conceded that he did not have a written
contract, but argued that he entered into an implied contract with Boeing.
Boeing denied the existence of such a contract.
Argument On appeal, plaintiff asserted that the parties'
mutual intent to be bound by an implied contract restricting Boeing's right to terminate employment at will.

Argument Plaintiff also argued that the Boeing’s
regulations indicated that he would not be fired except for a violation of company rules.

Verdict Plaintiff has failed to show specific facts from
which an implied contract can be inferred.
