MEMORANDUM **

Williams has not shown that the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department used his multiple acts of misconduct as “a pretext for disability discrimination.” Collings v. Longview Fibre Co., 68 F.3d 828, 833 (9th Cir. 1995). Thus, he has “presented no triable issue under the ADA.” Id. Williams’s equal protection claim fails because alcoholics are not a suspect class, see, e.g., Bonner v. Lewis, 857 F.2d 559, 565 (9th Cir. 1988), and penalizing him for his misconduct was not irrational. His due process claim fails because he had no property or liberty interest in either the possibility of promotion or in avoiding transfer into a different unit. See, e.g., Nunez v. City of Los Angeles, 147 F.3d 867, 871-874 (9th Cir. 1998). Finally, Williams’s claim for emotional distress fails because transferring Williams to a different unit and denying him a promotion was not an “extreme and outrageous” response to his rampant misconduct. Hirschhorn v. Sizzler Restaurants Int’l, Inc., 913 F.Supp. 1393, 1400 (D.Nev. 1995).

AFFIRMED.
