   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  06-1965
   U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - Minneapolis   
   [PUBLISHED] [Loken, Author, with Lay and Melloy, Circuit Judges]
   Civil case - Employment discrimination. The district court did not err
   in finding plaintiff was not entitled to protection under the Minnesota
   Whistleblower's statute as there was no evidence to demonstrate plaintiff
   made a report for the purpose of exposing a previously unknown
   illegality; plaintiff did not make a prima facie case of pregnancy
   discrimination as the circumstances surrounding her alleged termination
   did not give rise to an inference of discrimination; defamation claim was
   properly dismissed as there was no provable false statement of fact;
   battery claim was properly dismissed as plaintiff's sole remedy for a
   workplace battery is the Minnesota Workers Compensation Act.
