Description
J. Michael Dooley (Plaintiff) appeals from the trial courts judgment granting St. Louis County (County), Charlie A. Dooley (Executive), and James Bakers (Baker) (collectively referred to as Defendants), in their individual and official capacities, motion to dismiss Plaintiffs petition, which was filed pursuant to 42 U.S.C. Section 1983 (petition). The petition alleged that Defendants had violated Plaintiffs rights under the First and Fourteenth Amendments to the U.S. Constitution by terminating Plaintiffs employment in retaliation for Plaintiffs opposition to certain proposed road projects supported by Executive. We find the trial court erred in granting the motion to dismiss Plaintiffs petition because Plaintiff adequately stated a cause of action. Therefore, we reverse the trial courts judgment and remand the case for further proceedings.
