Karen Bammert worked at Don's Super Valu, Inc. in Menomonie, Wisconsin as an at-will employee. Her husband is a Menomonie police officer. Don's is owned by Don Williams, whose wife, Nona, was arrested for drunk driving. Bammert's husband assisted in the arrest by administering a breathalyzer test. Shortly thereafter, Bammert was fired, allegedly in retaliation for her husband's participation in the arrest of her boss's wife. Bammert sued for wrongful discharge, invoking the public policy exception to the employment-at-will doctrine.
