   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  03-2972
   Eastern District of Arkansas   
Civil case - civil rights. District court erred in denying defendants' motion to dismiss based on qualified immunity to plaintiff's claims alleging he was constructively discharged in violation of his First Amendment rights as a public employee; plaintiff resigned his position as the result of a policy dispute and not because he had been punished for exercising his public employee's First Amendment rights; governor's decision to terminate plaintiff immediately after he announced his resignation and stated he intended to make a public statement concerning the dispute was not a violation of any constitutional right.
