What rights does a teacher have to a termination hearing?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Fauver v. Josephine County, 141 F.3d 1175 (9th Cir. 1998):

There is no dispute that Fauver was entitled to a pre-termination hearing that complied with due process under the United States Constitution. See Cleveland Bd. of Educ. v. Loudermill, 470 U.S. 532, 546, 105 S.Ct. 1487, 1495, 84 L.Ed.2d 494 (1985). That is, he had a right to notice of the charges against him, an explanation of the employer's evidence, and an opportunity to present his side of the story. See id. Of course, he was also entitled to have some indication that his job was in jeopardy. See Matthews v. Harney County, Oregon, School Dist. No. 4, 819 F.2d 889, 892 (9th Cir.1987).
