California Court of Appeal

Judgment denying plaintiff's mandamus petition, which sought to overturn his dismissal as an Assistant Director of Maintenance for defendant-school district is affirmed, where: 1) plaintiff has not established any due process notice violations; 2) plaintiff's challenge to the neutrality of the hearing officer was both untimely and meritless; and 3) even if any of the disciplinary charges arose from plaintiff's protected speech, the separate and extensive evidence of his wrongdoing amply justified termination.
