Description

FLAUM, Circuit Judge. The plaintiff, Donald R. Furth, filed suit against his former employer, Inc. Publishing Corporation ("Inc."). He alleged that Inc. had wrongly withheld commissions that were due him. Furths claim was based on the theory that, because he was the "procuring cause" of the placement of certain advertisements in Inc. magazine, he was entitled to the commissions under state law. At the close of Furths case, Inc. moved for a dismissal under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b). The district court granted the motion, holding that Furth was not entitled to recovery for approximately 95 % of the advertisements for which he sought commissions. Furth appealed, arguing that he put forth sufficient evidence entitling him to all of the commissions. We disagree with Furth, and affirm the judgment of the district court.
