GROUSE V. GROUP HEALTH PLAN, INC.
306 N.W.2d 114 (Minn. 1981)
NATURE OF THE CASE: This was an appeal of a dismissal of an action for damages. Grouse
(P) challenged an order that P's complaint failed to state a claim against Group (D),
prospective employer.
FACTS: Grouse (P) was a pharmacist at Richter Drug and was looking for a new job. P got a
job offer from Group Health Plan, Inc. (D) through their chief pharmacist, Elliot. P told D
that he had to give two weeks notice. D agreed and later called P to make sure he resigned.
D's general manager told Elliot that he wanted a reference on P. Elliot could not obtain a
reference on P and D's employment offer was withdrawn and another person was hired. P called
to inform D that he was ready for work and P was told that the position was filled. P was
unable to find new work for some time. P then sued D for lost wages for D's breach of
contract. P's complaint was dismissed for a failure to state a claim. P appealed.
