The Buzbee Law Firm: Reynolds and Reynolds Sued for Alleged Fraudulent Termination of its CEO
- The Buzbee Law Firm has initiated a $300 million legal action in Harris County on behalf of Tommy Barras, the ex-CEO of Reynolds and Reynolds, accusing the company of wrongful termination.
- The lawsuit follows Barras being abruptly escorted from the office after a secret meeting, with Reynolds and Reynolds allegedly fabricating a termination reason involving old alleged misconduct to avoid payment.
- Barras served Reynolds and Reynolds for nearly fifty years, led the company after Bob Brockman stepped down, and held a ten-year contract guaranteeing salary, benefits, and EBITDA-based compensation.
- Lead counsel Tony Buzbee expressed strong support for Tommy Barras in filing the lawsuit, stating his intent to show that the stated grounds for Barras’s termination were falsely created by adversaries to deny him the compensation authorized by the board.
- The Buzbee Law Firm will aggressively pursue the matter to secure compensation that the board approved and Barras is rightly owed, emphasizing his loyalty and respected leadership.
