Case: Individual Employment Rights/Contracts (N.D. Ind.)

An Indiana federal district court denied Gary Community School Corporation summary judgment on the federal contracts claim of a fired teacher, alleging entitlement to her full yearly salary according to provisions in effect when she achieved tenure and not subsequent provisions mentioned in her later contract, where the corporation couldn’t prove her termination and pay loss didn’t disrupt actual and important reliance interests as a matter of law and that she can’t succeed on her claim.
