No. 238, p. 28). Thus, a cause of action for “breach of good faith” appears to be the crux of the instant count. As this Court previously noted, “[a] cause of action for a breach of the duty of good faith and fair dealing has been recognized by the courts.” 882 F.Supp. at 1031 (citing Scheck v. Burger King Corp., 798 F.Supp. 692 (S.D.Fla.1992)). However, “a claim for breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing cannot be maintained under Florida law absent an allegation that an express term of the contract has been breached.” Barnes v. Burger King Corp., 932 F.Supp. 1420, 1439 (S.D.Fla.1996). The Barnes court also noted that its holding was consistent with the Eleventh Circuit’s position in Alan’s of Atlanta, Inc., v. Minolta Corp., 903 F.2d 1414, 1429 (11th Cir.1990) (<HOLDING>). Accordingly, this Court granted Anthony leave
holding that the duty of good faith and fair dealing is a contractual duty holding that there can be no implied contractual term at variance with an express term of a contract holding that the defendant did not establish good faith as a matter of law holding that under georgia law the duty of good faith cannot be breached apart from an express contractual term holding that employment manuals express disclaimer superseded alleged implied contractual term
