California Court of Appeal


Villacorta v. Cemex Cement, Inc., E054329

In an action in which plaintiff alleged wrongful termination in violation of public policy, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and national origin discrimination, the jury's award to plaintiff of $198,000 for lost wages, but nothing for the other two causes of action, is affirmed, where: 1) the trial court did not err in denying defendant's motion for a new trial and/or judgment notwithstanding the verdict (JNOV) as substantial evidence supports the lost wages award; and 2) the trial court did not err in refusing to reduce the damage award.
