U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 08-1192
U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas - Jonesboro
[PUBLISHED] [Shepherd, Author, with Bye and Beam, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - Family and Medical Leave Act. Plaintiff did not adequately
put his employer on notice that he was in need of FMLA leave, and his
claim that the employer interfered with his FMLA rights by demoting him
for unexcused absences must fail; claim for retaliation fails for the same
reasons. Judge Bye, dissenting.
