Document Summary
Appellees jones day, rebekah r. bennett, paul, hastings, janofsky & walker, john f. What: robert wilson sued the home depot usa, inc. , for invasion of privacy and intentional infliction of emotional distress. The trial court dismissed wilson"s complaint with prejudice based upon wilson"s alleged failure to comply with a court order. He also contends that the trial court erred in denying his motion for summary judgment on the issue of home depot"s liability. For the following reasons, we affirm in part and reverse in part. The relevant facts show that wilson and his wife, martha carver, divorced in 1997. Carver learned that wilson no longer worked for home depot, she called the georgia store, using home depot"s inter-store telephone system. Carver then subpoenaed wilson"s employment records for use in a custody dispute in tennessee. Wilson filed suit against home depot, alleging claims for invasion of privacy and intentional infliction of emotional distress.
