                           EMPLOYMENT LAW



Generally

N.J.Super.App.Div.2019.  Cit. generally in ftn. Former employee, an Illinois resident, brought a lawsuit
against, among others, former employer based in New Jersey, alleging that defendants violated New
Jersey anti-discrimination statutes. The trial court granted defendants' motion to dismiss. This court
reversed in part, vacated in part, and remanded, holding that New Jersey law applied to plaintiff s
failure-to-promote claim, but that the record was insufficient to determine whether New Jersey law
applied to his wrongful-termination claim. The court relied on Restatement Second of Conflict of Laws,
noting that, generally, the Restatement of Employment Law did not provide guidance on choice-of-law
issues arising from interstate employment. Calabotta v. Phibro Animal Health Corporation, 213 A.3d
210, 220.



               CHAPTER 1. EXISTENCE OF EMPLOYMENT RELATIONSHIP

§ 1.03. Controlling Owners Are Not Employees

Conn.2019.  Com. (a) quot. in disc., quot. in ftn.; com. (b) quot. in ftn. Limited-liability company's sole
member  who  had been injured while working part-time as a park police officer appealed a decision by
the state workers' compensation commissioner, alleging that the commissioner erred in denying
payment  of workers' compensation based on plaintiff's income from the limited-liability company and
his part-time work. This court reversed the decision of the board, holding, inter alia, that plaintiff was an
employee  of his limited-liability company because legislative intent behind state workers' compensation
laws contemplated the possibility of a limited-liability company being separate from its members and
employing  them. The court cited Restatement of Employment Law § 1.03 as an authority for the notion
that, in certain cases, limited-liability companies could employ their members. Gould v. City of
Stamford, 203 A.3d 525, 538.



    CHAPTER 5. THE TORT OF WRONGFUL DISCHARGE IN VIOLATION OF PUBLIC
                                            POLICY

§ 5.01. Wrongful Discharge in Violation of Public Policy

Iowa, 2019. Cit. in conc. and diss. op.; com. (e) and illus. 3 cit. in conc. and diss. op. Former employee
of state department of public safety sued state and others, alleging, among other things, that he was
wrongfully discharged in violation of the state whistleblower statute. The trial court granted summary
judgment for defendants. While reversing in part and remanding plaintiff's whistleblower claim, this
court held, among other things, that plaintiff was not entitled to a jury trial under the statute. The
concurring and dissenting opinion cited Restatement of Employment Law § 5.01 in explaining that,
while some states had found the remedies of reinstatement and backpay in their whistleblower statutes to
