Heading: Commissions after Termination

Text: 12 Appellant also argues that there was an implied agreement to pay commissions to Jenkins on all reorders that were a result of his initial efforts to get a particular line in a store. John Stephenson, Angelo's southern regional sales manager, was asked: 13 Q: Now, against the background of your experience in the business and with respect to your reps who are now your reps and haved always been your reps, do you pay a commission on those re-orders, those automatic reorders? 14 A: A rep gets a commission for all sales whether they are initial, re-order, or whatever. 15 Q:    Does that include automatic re-orders? 16 A: Yes sir. 17 T. p. 262. He was also asked: 18 Q: Do you, Mr. Stephenson, with the benefit of hindsight, give Mr. Jenkins credit for the sales you're making Wal-Mart Stores as we speak today? 19 A: Very much so. 20 T. p. 271-72. 21 In our view, this testimony is more than sufficient evidence from which the jury could determine that Angelo had specifically agreed to pay Jenkins a sales commission on reorders, and the district court erred in taking this issue from the jury.
