Contracts
Insurance agents
Richard Stamm and Steve Holter entered into a contract under which Stamm, an independent contractor, worked as an insurance agent for Holter, also an independent contractor, to sell policies issued by Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Company. Shortly after entering into the contract, Holter terminated it. Stamm sued, alleging, among other things, that Holter breached the contract by terminating it improperly. The circuit court granted summary judgment in favor of Holter. On appeal, Stamm asserts that summary judgment was improper because factual issues remain that require a trial. We disagree and affirm. Not recommended for publication in the official reports.
