Description

In this civil rights appeal under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 of the District Court's order, to reinstate Odis Solomon, a former member of the Royal Oak Township Police Department, the central issue is whether appellants violated Solomon's First Amendment right to freedom of speech when they discharged him for informing a newspaper reporter about departmental corruption. In addition, Tommy Staton, a member of the Township Board of Trustees, appeals the District Court's $10,000 damages award for the pendent state law claim of defamation. We affirm the District Court's determination that appellants discharged Solomon in violation of his First Amendment rights. However, we reverse the damages award against Staton for defamation and remand for further findings respecting one aspect of the defamation claim.
