California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Ass'n for L. A. Deputy Sheriffs v. Macias, 278 Cal.Rptr.3d 487, 63 Cal.App.5th 1007 (Cal. App. 2021):
Defendants argue that "[e]mployee expenses are not recoverable as damages." They cite no authority for this proposition, and we are aware of none. Damages incurred as a result of a breach of fiduciary duty are recoverable. ( Meister v. Mensinger, supra, 230 Cal.App.4th at p. 396, 178 Cal.Rptr.3d 604.)
