Tameny v. Atlantic Richfield Co. , 27 Cal. 3d 167 ( 1980 )

  • MANUEL, J.

    I concur in the judgment.

    In my view the cause of action here in question flows from a clear statutory source—i.e., the provisions of section 2856 of the Labor Code. (Cf. Montalvo v. Zamora (1970) 7 Cal.App.3d 69, 73-75 [86 Cal.Rptr. 401].) Accordingly, I see no reason to search further for it among the vague and ill-defined dictates of “fundamental public policy.”
