Description

This case involves a contract dispute, and theres the rub. Plaintiff/appellee C. R. Lee Enterprises obtained a jury verdict against Airborne Freight Corporation, Inc. and Cindy Whitson, Airbornes regional manager (referred to as "Airborne") on a hybrid theory of negligent misrepresentation and fraud; Lee lost two breach of contract claims, one to a negative jury finding and one to summary judgment. We find that because the cause of action here relates only to duties stemming from the contractual agreement between the parties, because the damages proven by Lee relate only to the subject matter of the contract itself, and because the written contract specifically disclaims any reliance on oral representations, no tort cause of action lies. Further, because all breach of contract claims were decided against Lee in the trial court, and these adverse findings are not challenged on appeal, we reverse and render judgment that C. R. Lee Enterprises take nothing.
