J. Dick grants a request by the state department of corrections, dismissing on procedural grounds the Title VII complaint of a fired black prison lieutenant, a 20-year veteran. He alleges he was fired for his use of force on an inmate, but a white captain who allegedly committed equal or greater violations of department police in the same incident, got to keep his job. The lieutenant’s claims of racial bias favoring the white captain fail because employees of different rank or status cannot be similarly situated.
