Description
Appellant, Dr. Erle E. Peacock, Jr., a tenured professor of surgery at the University of Arizona College of Medicine and former surgery department head, filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the District of Arizona on February 22, 1974, alleging that his dismissal as department head and suspension as professor, without prior hearings, violated Fourteenth Amendment due process and First Amendment free speech rights, and constituted a breach of contract. The University's administrative procedures as applied to appellant during post-deprivation review proceedings were also attacked as being violative of due process. Plaintiff appeals the correctness of the district court's decisions (1) vacating a jury verdict in plaintiff's favor and ordering a new trial on certain issues, (2) granting partial summary judgment to certain defendants, and (3) directing a verdict in favor of the remaining defendants. These orders are herein affirmed.
