Kwik Office Supplies hired Jackson to act as its manager. The employment contract spelled out, in substantial detail, the various rights and obligations that the parties assumed under the agreement. Two years later, Jackson was fired after the company received an angry letter from a dissatisfied company that had been defrauded by Jackson. To protect its reputation, and in recognition of the validity of the allegation, Kwik Office Supply is prepared to settle the customer's tort claim. As part of that same process, however, it believes that once it has compensated the customer, it is entitled to receive reimbursement from Jackson. Jackson rejects that claim. He insists that his only relationship with the company is contractual and he correctly notes that the employment contract did not deal with the situation that has actually occurred. Will Jackson be required to reimburse the company for the money that it pays to the customer? How can he be held liable for an obligation that he never accepted as part of his contract?
