Description
From 1969 until 1975, Jean Biscar, plaintiff-appellant, was employed as an assistant professor at the University of Wyoming. The University interprets the employment as consisting of a series of temporary appointments, while Mr. Biscar contends the employment was represented to him as a "tenure-track" appointment. Biscar was terminated without a formal tenure hearing, whereupon he filed suit in a state district court against defendants-appellees, members of the Universitys Board of Trustees, in their official capacities, and the University President in his official capacity. Biscar asked back pay, reinstatement and consideration for tenure. He further alleged the existence of an employment contract with respect to which he sought specific performance, and lastly he charged the defendants with violations of his federal rights under the Fourteenth Amendment, as interpreted in Perry v. Sindermann, 408 U.S. 593, 92 S.Ct. 2694, 33 L.Ed.2d 570 (1972), and similar cases.
