Marcia Wilson v. Hawaii, et al.

Paid petition · United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, No. 17-16264 · judgment January 19, 2018


Certiorari denied · April 16, 2018
Pre-decision estimate: 0% cert probability

Before the decision, well below the 4.1% base rate: the model weighted this down for a self-represented petitioner, though a petition filed soon after the judgment below counted the other way.

Question presented

Is the Order Granting State of Hawaii's Motion for Summary Judgment (filed 08/26/2008) (that I did not pursue to a higher court after judgment) sufficient to show as material fact, the connection between the protected activity and the adverse employment action? (2000e § 704(a)of the Title VII of 1964) Did the employer act discriminatorily, by abusing their managerial discretion in terminating person without just and proper cause? (Title VII) Does adverse employment action allow for intentional tort, as a means to hurt and cause the loss of property by retaliation and does targeting of person and family members by the police, violate the Fourth Amendment?
