Aveau v. 23 Bottles of Beer CA1/4
Plaintiff Tiffany Aveau appeals a judgment in favor of defendant 23 Bottles of Beer, LLC, doing business as Russian River Brewing Company (Russian River), after the trial court granted Russian River’s motion for summary judgment in Aveau’s action for a common law claim of wrongful termination in violation of public policy. Aveau contends the court erred by using the incorrect statute of limitations to conclude her cause of action was time-barred. Russian River maintains the cause of action was properly dismissed as untimely; Aveau had not pleaded a claim for common law wrongful termination. Because we conclude Aveau’s complaint adequately alleged facts apprising Russian River of her cause of action for wrongful termination in violation of public policy, it was therefore timely filed; the trial court erred in summarily adjudicating this cause of action.
