052777P.pdf   03/29/2006  Gregory Winskowski  v.  City of Stephen
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  05-2777
   District of Minnesota   
   [PUBLISHED] [Gruender, Author, with Wollman and Arnold, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - civil rights. Assuming without deciding that plaintiff was entitled to a name-clearing hearing based on a city councilperson's criticisms, his meeting with the city council one week after the criticism was made constituted a sufficient pre-termination name-clearing hearing; plaintiff never requested a post-termination name-clearing hearing, and failure to do so bars recovery for deprivation of a name-clearing hearing.
