Applegate v. Fund for Constitutional Government

Peggy Bryant, Judge.

Plaintiff-appellant, Ralph A. Applegate, appeals from a judgment of the Franklin County Court of Common Pleas granting the motion for summary judgment of defendant-appellee, Fund for Constitutional Government (“Fund”).

Pursuant to the parties’ affidavits supplied in support of and in opposition to defendant’s motion for summary judgment, plaintiff was employed by the Defense Construction Supply Center prior to his discharge in 1976. Plaintiff maintains that he was discharged for engaging in “whistleblowing” activities designed to reveal government waste and other misconduct.
