Altman v. Minnesota Dept. of Corrections by Eighth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals Book Summary

Appeals from the United States District Court for the District of Minnesota. Submitted: November 15, 2000 Thomas Altman, Kristen Larson, and Kenneth Yackly are employees of the Minnesota Department of Corrections assigned to the correctional facility in Shakopee, which we will refer to as MCFS. In October 1997, they silently read their Bibles during a mandatory seventy-five-minute training program entitled ""Gays and Lesbians in the Workplace."" The three received written reprimands, which made Larson and Yackly ineligible for promotions then in progress. They filed this action against the Department and various officials alleging, inter alia, that the reprimands violated their federal and state constitutional rights of free speech, free exercise of religion, and freedom of conscience, their right to equal protection of the law, and Title VII. For relief, they sought a declaratory judgment that their discipline was illegal and unconstitutional, withdrawal of the reprimands, promotion of Larson and Yackly with back pay and benefits, rescission of Altman's negative performance evaluation, compensatory damages for humiliation and anguish, and attorneys' fees.
