TAMMIE MCPHERSON v. HARRISON COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION SHEILA CURTIS MISSY YATES MITCHELL KING LANETRA HARRIS EEOC (2024)

Tammie McPherson, a former teacher in the Harrison County School district, filed suit against the Harrison County School Board and several of her former superiors. She alleges defendants violated Title VII and Mississippi tort law by failing to provide her with an evaluation and a letter of recommendation so she could pursue a new teaching job in another school district. McPherson also sued LeNatra Harris, an EEOC agent, alleging Harris failed to investigate her case. McPherson consented to the jurisdiction of a magistrate. The magistrate granted McPherson leave to proceed in forma pauperis and then dismissed her claims before service of process because McPherson “fail[ed] to state a claim on which relief may be granted” or her claims were “frivolous or malicious.” 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B). McPherson fails to identify any reversible error.

AFFIRMED.
