Casden v. Casden
This matter has already been before this court several times before. Two brothers, Henry Casden and Alan Casden, worked together at a company Alan owned. However, after a dispute between the two, Henry left his employment. Days later (but more than nine years ago now), Henry filed suit against his brother Alan and two of Alans businesses, alleging he did not receive the benefits to which he was entitled under several agreements relating to his employment. Alan and his companies then asserted a number of claims against Henry seeking rescission of the agreements and damages for fraud and failure to perform job duties. After the defendants prevailed on a summary judgment motion and subsequent jury trial (after a mistrial), Henry appealed and we reversed both judgments. After retrial, both sides appealed, and we affirmed in part, but reversed and remanded for retrial on certain claims. As relevant to this appeal, Henrys claim for bonus compensation was reinstated (the trial court had found it barred by a release agreement Henry had signed) and he was entitled to a new trial on the amount of damages for breach of an award agreement. After this latest retrial, as to both of these claims, the jury concluded Henry was due no damages. Henry appeals. Court affirm.
