Description
By six points of error, Wal-Mart seeks reversal of a multi-million dollar jury verdict awarded in favor of its former employee, T.J. Lane. While employed by Wal-Mart, Lane complained that a female co-worker was "spreading rumors about him" that he had sexually harassed her. Upon investigating Lanes complaint, Wal-Mart concluded that Lane had indeed sexually harassed the female employee, and terminated Lane for that reason. Lane then brought suit against Wal-Mart for slander, retaliatory discharge, negligent investigation, and sex discrimination. The jury found for Lane, and awarded in excess of two million dollars in damages. We reverse and render judgment that Lane take nothing.
