Locke v. US Airways, Inc., No. 13-2330 (1st Cir. 2014)
Annotate this CasePolice officers discovered Thomas Locke, a US Airways mechanic at Logan International Airport, filching company property. US Airways entered into a “Last Chance Agreement” with Locke in lieu of termination and provided for Locke’s return to work. Logan International Airport, however, denied Locke’s application for renewal of his security badge. Thereafter, US Airways concluded that Locke had violated the terms of the Agreement and terminated his employment. Locke subsequently filed suit against US Airways, alleging that US Airways breached the Agreement by interfering with his application for a security badge at Logan Airport and by preventing him from transferring to Philadelphia International Airport. The district court granted summary judgment for US Airways. The First Circuit affirmed, holding that there was no triable basis for Locke’s contentions in the record.
