Description
The opinion of the court was delivered by Plaintiff (appellee) brought this action to recover from defendant (appellant) money allegedly due him under the terms of a written contract of employment. From a verdict and judgment in plaintiff's favor, defendant appeals. Plaintiff's petition alleged in substance that in July, 1950 the parties entered into an oral agreement whereby plaintiff undertook the management of three insurance agencies owned by defendant. Subsequently, and in June, 1951, the parties entered into a written ""Management Contract,"" under which plaintiff agreed to accept full responsibility for the management of the three agencies, to sell insurance to the best of his ability and to carry on the business, for which he was to receive from the agencies thirty per cent of the net profits. At any time arrangements were not satisfactory, plaintiff agreed to terminate his employment for a lump sum of $2,000, plus his share of the net profits to date of termination. It was further alleged that plaintiff performed his obligations under the agreement until May, 1953, when defendant terminated plaintiff's employment; that defendant accounted to plaintiff for plaintiff's share of the net profits of the agencies but breached that portion of the contract relating to the payment of the lump sum of $2,000; that defendant failed to pay said sum on demand, and plaintiff asked for judgment therefor.
