BAYANDOR v. Board of Visitors, Virginia Polytechnic Institute And State University, Defendant. (2020)

Javid Bayandor, a former associate professor at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, brought the action underlying this appeal against the University; the Commonwealth of Virginia; the former provost of the University, Thanassis Rikakis; and the University's Board of Visitors, alleging claims arising out of the Defendants’ decision to deny Bayandor tenure. The district court granted the Defendants’ motion to dismiss Bayandor's claims after determining that several claims were untimely and that others failed to state claims upon which relief could be granted. We have considered the parties’ arguments and have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. See Bayandor v. Va. Polytechnic & State Univ., No. 7:18-cv-00026-EKD, 2019 WL 1338906 (W.D. Va. Mar. 25, 2019). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
