Schenectady Hardware & Electric Co. v. Loomis
Docket: No. 06-2957-cv
Court: Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit; March 21, 2007; Federal Appellate Court
Schenectady Hardware and Electric Company (SH. E) appeals a district court order granting summary judgment in favor of Bethlehem Central School District and other defendants. SH. E argued it had a protected liberty interest as the low bidder on a contract, claiming that the rejection of all bids in the first round constituted a deprivation of that interest without due process. The appellate court affirms the district court's decision, agreeing with its reasoning and finding SH. E's arguments unpersuasive. Additionally, SH. E does not contest the summary judgment related to its second cause of action regarding reputational damage from a letter sent by defendant Loomis. The judgment of the district court is affirmed.
