Description
Defendants, Continental Airlines, Inc. (Continental), and three of its employees -- Danielle Ames, a flight attendant, and Sandra Chamberlain and Judith Richards, flight attendant supervisors -- appeal from judgments for money damages against them and in favor of plaintiff, Bruce P. Williams, a pilot employed by Continental, and plaintiff cross-appeals from the trial court's reduction of the jury's damage award. The judgment against Ames was based upon her defamatory statements that plaintiff had attempted to rape her. The judgments against Continental and Richards were based upon allegations by plaintiff that there had been an insufficient and negligent internal investigation conducted by Continental and its supervisors when Ames made her allegations against plaintiff. The judgment against Chamberlain was based both upon her defamation of plaintiff, as well as her asserted negligence in failing to report Ames' allegations to Continental on a timely basis. We affirm the judgments based on defamation, but reverse the judgments based upon an alleged negligent internal investigation by Continental and its supervisors. The reversal of those judgments renders plaintiff's cross-appeal moot.
