A former Duke Hospital parking lot attendant can proceed with a portion of his lawsuit against Duke University, based on an opinion released this morning from the N.C. Court of Appeals. The ruling from a unanimous three-judge panel reverses a portion of a trial-court order against the attendant, who lost his job in 2008 after a scuffle with a campus police officer.
Among unpublished opinions released this morning:
- A unanimous three-judge panel affirmed a lower court’s ruling against a former Charlotte-Mecklenburg middle school French teacher fired in 2005 after school officials raised concerns about inappropriate email between the teacher and a student.
- A unanimous three-judge panel affirmed a lower court’s ruling in favor of New Bern in the case of a nurse who sued the city after she was arrested and jailed on drug charges that were later dropped.
