Mussack v. Department of Education

182 F. App'x 737

Opinion

ORDER

*

We affirm the district court’s grant of summary judgment to the Hawaii Department of Education. Mussack’s retaliation claim fails because he did not present sufficient evidence to show that the Department’s proffered reason for his termination was pretext. See Villiarimo v. Aloha Island Air, Inc., 281 F.3d 1054, 1061-62 (9th Cir.2002). Mussack’s interference claim similarly fails because he did not present sufficient evidence to support it. Regardless of which framework is used to analyze his interference claim, Mussack simply did not present evidence that the Department interfered with his rights. See Brown v. City of Tucson, 336 F.3d 1181, 1193 (9th Cir.2003).

AFFIRMED.
