U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 12-3842
U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas - Little Rock
[PUBLISHED] [Benton, Author, with Loken and Colloton, Circuit Judges]
Civil case -Employment discrimination. The court had jurisdiction over the
defendant's qualified immunity appeal where the appeal challenged the
sufficiency of plaintiff's pleadings to state claims for violations of
Section 1983, as well as FMLA interference and retaliation; plaintiff's
complaint failed to state a Section 1983 claim for gender discrimination
as it did no more than make conclusory allegations of gender
discrimination; nor did the complaint state claims for FMLA interference
and retaliation, and the district court erred in denying defendant's
motion for summary judgment on the FMLA issue; court would not exercise
its pendent appellate jurisdiction to review the district court's partial
denial of the Arkansas Department of Health's motion to dismiss.
