4th Circuit Affirms Award of Summary Judgment Where Executive Found To Have Voluntarily Resigned to Take Another Position

In a published opinion, the 4th Circuit has affirmed the Eastern District of Virginia's award of summary judgment to an employer. In this case, the plaintiff had been an executive making over $200,000 per year. The 4th Circuit found that the evidence was clear that the executive had voluntarily resigned, and that there had been no constructive discharge. Honor v. Booz-Allen & Hamilton, No. 03-2076 (4th Cir.
