District Court, N.D. Alabama March 7, 2017, Case No.: 7:14-cv-0834-RDP (McCarley v. City of Northport)

MEMORANDUM OPINION

R. DAVID PROCTOR, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE

Some cases are easy. For example, consider a case in which a former police officer sues over her dismissal. The facts show that for two hours or so, while she was supposed to be on patrol, she stepped behind the counter at a Kangaroo convenience/gas mart and ran a cash register— while wearing her police uniform.
