Description
Dr. Robert W. Schrier, M.D., a Professor of Medicine at the University of Colorado (University), filed a civil action in Colorado state court against the University and three of its employees, President Elizabeth Hoffman, Dean Richard D. Krugman, M.D., and Chancellor James H. Shore, M.D., in their official capacities. Mr. Schriers complaint alleges that defendants termination of his appointment as Chair of the Universitys Department of Medicine in retaliation for his acts of speaking publicly about a matter of public concern violated his constitutional rights pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 and constituted a breach of contract. Defendants removed the suit to federal court pursuant to 28 § U.S.C. 1441. Subsequent to removal, Dr. Schrier filed a motion for a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction seeking reinstatement as Chair of the Department of Medicine. The magistrate judge, designated pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c) by consent of the parties, denied Dr. Schriers motion and this appeal followed. While we disagree with certain legal conclusions reached by the court below, in the final analysis we nonetheless affirm denial of the injunction.
