Jones v. Aldine Independent School District

United States Court of Appeals Fifth Circuit F I L E D IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS May 7, 2004 FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT Charles R. Fulbruge III Clerk No. 03-20730 GLENN E. JONES, Plaintiff-Appellant, versus ALDINE INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT, Defendant-Appellee. Appeal from the United States District Court For the Southern District of Texas, Houston (H-01-CV-3131) Before HIGGINBOTHAM, DENNIS, and CLEMENT, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM:* With the benefit of able oral argument, we are persuaded to affirm the summary judgment granted by the district court. While we are persuaded that a prima facie case was likely made, we must conclude that there is no genuine issue of material fact but that Jones’s contract would not have been renewed even if he had engaged in no protected activity. AFFIRMED. * Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
