IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF MARYLAND PERVIE HENDERSON v. JOHN GILBERT, ET AL. * * * Civil No. JFM-06-1284 * * ***** MEMORANDUM Pervie Henderson has brought this pro se action for employment discrimination against the Anne Arundel County Board of Education ("the Board"), John Gilbert, the foreman of operations for Anne Arundel County Schools, Walter George, the supervisor of operations for the Anne Arundel County Schools, and Sue Torr, the principal of Solley Elementary School. All of the defendants other than Torr have filed a motion to dismiss or for summary judgment as to certain of the claims asserted against them. Torr has not yet been served but the senior county attorney representing the other defendants has indicated that she is authorized to accept service on Torr's behalf. Defendants' motion will be granted in part and denied in part. Further, because the grounds upon which I am granting the motion apply to Torr as well, I will likewise dismiss certain of the claims against her. I. Henderson alleges that he was discriminated against because of his race, because of a disability, and - as to incidents that occurred after he filed his first charge of discrimination with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission ("EEOC") and the Maryland Commission on Human Relations - in retaliation for the exercise of his statutory rights. His claims are based upon disciplinary actions that were taken on three different days: June 1, 2004, August 19, 2004,

and February 14, 2005. The complaint contains four counts. The first count asserts state constitutional claims under the Maryland Declaration of Rights. The second count asserts federal constitutional claims under 42 U.S.C.
