Romero v. LA Power Joint Venture
Plaintiff Al Romero and his company, Advanced Service Solutions, Inc., (together Romero) brought the instant action seeking damages for wrongful termination in violation of public policy. Romero alleges he was fired from his position with defendants, the Los Angeles Power Joint Venture et al. (defendants or LAP), in retaliation for making numerous complaints about the safety and effectiveness of a control and monitoring system for a power plant that defendants were renovating for the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (DWP). Romero appeals from the dismissal of the action after the trial court granted defendants motion for summary judgment. Court hold that Romero has demonstrated numerous triable issues of material fact precluding summary adjudication of his cause of action for wrongful termination against public policy based on Californias Occupational Safety and Health Act (Cal-OSHA), Labor Code section 6310. Accordingly, the judgment is reversed.
