About Breach of Contract Claims

Breach of employment contract claims arise when an employer violates the terms of a written or implied employment agreement. This may include violations of compensation terms, non-compete agreements, severance provisions, or implied promises of continued employment. These cases examine the existence and terms of the contract and whether a material breach occurred.

Motion to dismiss Civ.R. 12(B)(1) subject matter jurisdiction de novo review State Employment Relations Board exclusive jurisdiction R.C. Chapter 4117 collective bargaining agreement final and binding arbitration exclusive remedy claims arising from or depending on collective bargaining agreement breach of contract terms and conditions of employment. The claims raised in the instant matter do not fall outside the scope of the collective bargaining agreement, and thus the only remedy available to appellant was through the appropriate grievance procedure. The trial court properly found that it lacked subject-matter jurisdiction over appellant's claims.
