Description
This action was instituted in the circuit court of Champaign County by Walter E. Sinclair, plaintiff, to recover damages for an alleged breach of an employment contract committed by the defendant, Sullivan Chevrolet Company. Summary judgment was entered on defendant's motion and, upon review, the Appellate Court for the Fourth District affirmed the judgment. (Sinclair v. Sullivan Chevrolet Co. 45 Ill. App.2d 10, 195 N.E.2d 250.) Leave to appeal has been granted by this court. In his amended complaint the plaintiff alleged that on May 30, 1960, he entered into an oral contract with the defendant whereby he was to be employed as sales manager for a one-year period starting June 6, 1960. According to further allegations, plaintiff was to receive a salary of $1,200 per month plus a bonus to be later agreed upon but with a guaranteed minimum annual remuneration of $20,000. In addition, the employer was to pay plaintiff's moving expenses, provide him with a company automobile, and reduce the agreement to writing on June 6, 1960. It is further alleged that said representations were falsely made by the defendant without intention of performance, but this being unknown to the plaintiff, he quit his job in St. Louis, moved his family to Champaign, and assumed his duties pursuant to the agreement. However, defendant did not abide by said agreement, as a result of which plaintiff terminated his employment on March 18, 1961. He claimed damages of $12,527.
