Description

This appeal presents the Court with an issue of first impression, to-wit: Whether an employee-at-will who is discharged because he or she files a claim for workers compensation has a cause of action for retaliatory discharge against the employer. The Chancellor held that such an action could not be maintained and granted the defendant-employers motion to dismiss the plaintiffs complaint under Rule 12.02(6), Tennessee Rules of Civil Procedure.The Court of Appeals affirmed and we granted permission to appeal under Rule 11, Tennessee Rules of Appellate Procedure.
