Costain v. Sunbury Primary Care, P.A.

[¶ 1] Kimberly Costain appeals from the dismissal of her amended complaint by the Superior Court (Penobscot County, Hjelm, J.). The complaint alleged that Costain’s employment with Sunbury Primary Care, P.A., was terminated in violation of the Whistleblowers’ Protection Act (WPA), 26 M.R.S.A. §§ 831-840 (1988 & Supp.2002), and the Maine Human Rights Act (MHRA), 5 M.R.S.A. §§ 4551-4634 (2002 & Supp.2004). 1 Costain argues that her participation in an investigation was a protected action under the WPA and therefore she has a cause of action under the WPA and the MHRA. We affirm the judgment.
