Production Components-Cloeren Inc. (PC-C) appeals a summary judgment dismissing its action against Robert Druschel in which it alleged that Druschel breached his fiduciary duty and duty of loyalty when he failed to disclose and lied about other employees’ plans to start a competing business. PC-C argues that Druschel’s fiduciary duties arise out of his employee status as well as the terms of written contracts. We conclude that Druschel had no common law fiduciary duty arising out of his employment and that the alleged contractual obligation was not adequately preserved for appeal.
Therefore, we affirm the summary judgment.
This opinion will not be published.
