ORDER

THIS MATTER is before the Court on Defendant’s Motion to Dismiss Plaintiff’s
Amended Complaint, Third Claim (Wrongful Discharge). (Doc. No. 18). Plaintiff filed a
“Response in Opposition,” (Doc. No. 21), and Defendant filed a “Reply” (Doc. No. 24). Having
carefully considered the motions, the record, and the applicable authority, this Court lacks
jurisdiction over such claim.
Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss is GRANTED, and Plaintiff’s state law claim for wrongful
discharge is DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE.
SO ORDERED.
