Visitors Bureau Sued Over Firing: The former president of the Los Angeles Convention & Visitors Bureau filed a breach-of-contract suit Tuesday, claiming that the organization defrauded him when he was fired in September, 1989. The Los Angeles Superior Court case by Bill F. Miller says the bureau and its chairman, John F. Llewellyn, did not point out that his employment contract was automatically renewed on a yearly basis when he signed an amendment that turned out to waive that right. Miller seeks damages of more than $200,000 plus punitives and seven months of his $130,000-per-year salary as severance. (Filed May 22, 1990. Case No. BC001729)
