Wei-Ping Zeng v. Marshall University, et al.
Paid petition · United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit, No. 20-1481 · judgment January 11, 2022
Before the decision, well below the 4.1% base rate, with no standout signals pointing toward a grant.
Questions presented
-
Whether the lower courts have departed from the accepted and usual course of judicial proceedings by refusing to provide Petitioner the record on appeal (ROA), and this Court should exercise its supervisory power to order the lower courts to comply with Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure (FRAP).
-
Whether this Court should provide more definite guidelines to balance a court’s responsibility to determine discrimination by blatant disparate treatments of employees and avoidance to sit as a “super personnel department”.
-
Whether an unauthorized warning of potential termination of employment instead of the termination itself is the adverse employment action for the purpose of determining unlawful retaliation.
