Armine Kadiyan v. Medtronic

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
Armine Kadiyan v. Medtronic, 510 F. App'x 649 (9th Cir. 2013)

Armine Kadiyan v. Medtronic

Opinion

MEMORANDUM **

Plaintiff Armine Kadiyan appeals the district court’s grant of summary judgment in favor of defendant, Medtronic, Inc. We agree with the district court that there were no genuine issues of material fact that precluded the grant of summary judgment. Even assuming plaintiff was terminated, as she alleges, defendant’s undisputed conduct did not violate the California Family Rights Act or the Fair Employment and Housing Act and, consequently, her termination was not in violation of public policy. Moreover, plaintiffs claim for breach of express or implied employment contract is flatly contradicted by the documents that she signed indicating her employment was at all times “at-will.” Thus, we uphold the grant of summary judgment.

AFFIRMED.
