Scenario (based on a real case from New Jersey): An X-ray technician worked at a local hospital in a State that recognizes the employment-at-will doctrine and she was an at-will employee. As a part of her duties, she was required by her supervisor to perform certain catheterizations on patients. When she refused, alleging it was illegal for her to do so because she had not been trained to do the procedures, she was discharged and her employment was terminated. The X-ray technician then brought a suit for wrongful termination and breach of employment contract, alleging retaliation for her refusal to perform the catheterizations.

• How should the Court rule?

• Even though the X-ray technician was an employee at-will, are there any exceptions to the rule that might apply?

• If so, what is the basis or rationale for your position?

• Answer all questions based on the scenario. All reference would be listed on APA style.
