   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  12-1797
   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas - Little Rock   
   [PUBLISHED] [Chief Judge Riley, Author, with Wollman and Gruender, 
   Circuit Judges]
   Civil Case - civil rights. District court's grant of 
   summary judgment in civil rights action alleging violations of due process 
   and equal protection relating to termination for gross misconduct is 
   affirmed. Due process claims failed because employee received all the 
   process she was due; the failure to provide specific examples of altered 
   records does not rise to the level of a due process violation. Claim that 
   employee was deprived of a liberty interest in her reputation without due 
   process failed because employee did not sufficiently, if at all, request a 
   name-clearing hearing. District court did not err in finding employee 
   failed to show direct evidence of gender discrimination and correctly 
   concluded employee did not show the defendants' explanation for terminating 
   her was a pretext for gender discrimination; the comparators were not 
   similarly situated.
