King v. Mississippi Department of Corrections

MeMILLIN, Presiding Justice,

for the Court:

¶ 1. Vickie McLeod King appeals from the decision of the Circuit Court of Greene County which upheld the order of the Mississippi Appeals Board finding that McLeod was properly terminated from her employment with the Mississippi Department of Corrections.

¶ 2. On appeal McLeod raises the issue of whether her termination was a denial of fundamental fairness and, therefore, a denial of substantive due process. We find no error and affirm the decision of the circuit court.

FACTS

¶ 3. McLeod was employed by the Mississippi Department of Corrections in 1994.…
