Paul Smith, Appellant v. State of Alaska, Department of Transportation and Public Facilities, Appellee

Summary

The Alaska Supreme Court affirmed summary judgment for the State on Smith's racial-discrimination and implied-covenant claims. Smith failed to show that similarly situated employees outside his protected class were treated more favorably, and he presented no evidence that the State's investigation or termination decision was unfair or in bad faith. His other claims were not considered because his brief did not develop them.
