Blantz v. Cal. Dept. of Corrections CA4/1
While under a temporary contract with a medical staffing agency, plaintiff Christine Blantz was placed as a nurse practitioner at a prison hospital operated by defendant California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (Corrections). Corrections terminated Blantz's placement about a year and a half later, and would not hire her when she directly applied for work three months later.
Blantz sued Corrections and various of its employees in superior court alleging a variety of federal and state law claims arising from her termination and Corrections' refusal to hire her directly. The action was removed to federal court, where the district court dismissed Blantz's federal claims and remanded her state law claims to the superior court.
