Description
In this case, plaintiff brought suit under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 against the Provost and the former Dean of the College of Liberal Arts at the University of Tennessee. Plaintiff asserts that his removal by defendants from his position as Head of the University's Speech and Theatre Department violated his rights under the first and fourteenth amendments of the Constitution. The district court granted defendants summary judgment based on its findings that defendants were entitled to qualified immunity and that plaintiff had adequate state postdeprivation remedies. We find that defendants' actions did not violate any of plaintiff's clearly established rights and therefore affirm the district court's judgment on the grounds of qualified immunity.*fn1
