Brown claimed violations of his federal and state constitutional rights.
Brown sued the MTTA over a series of events in 2007 in which he was
alleged to have been disruptive, intoxicated behaved badly. Initially
Brown brought suit in state court. That case was dismissed for lack of
jurisdiction. He then refiled the case with the federal district court.
The district court granted summary judgment in favor of the MTTA as well
as defendants J.D. Eppler, Ray Willard, Jane Doe, and Janet Doe
(collectively "employee defendants"). In so doing, the court concluded
Brown did not have a constitutionally protected property interest in
access to MTTA services. Upon review of the matter, the Tenth Circuit
reversed the district court's dismissal on Brown's procedural due
process claim; the district court judgment was affirmed in all other
respects, and the matter remanded for further proceedings.
