Ohio Court of Appeals January 2, 1997, No. 17817. (Thatcher v. Goodwill Industries of Akron)

*530

Baird, Judge.

Richard Thatcher appeals the Summit County Court of Common Pleas’ grant of summary judgment to Thatcher’s former employer, Goodwill Industries of Akron (“Goodwill”), on claims Thatcher made in connection with his discharge by Goodwill. We affirm in part and reverse in part.

In 1989, Goodwill hired Thatcher as a placement specialist, promoting him to personnel director in 1992.
