MEMORANDUM OPINION
JAMES E. BOASBERG, District Judge.
Plaintiff Trayon Robinson was employed as a security guard by Defendant Securitas Services, Inc. After being terminated in October 2010, she filed this suit asserting causes of action for wrongful termination, breach of contract, and defamation.
