Fairbanks North Star Borough School

PER CURIAM On petition for review by the Fairbanks North Star Borough School District, the superior court's ruling that a tenured school
teacher is entitled to a jury trial in an action under AS 14.20.205 for review of his dismissal is reversed. The right of
trial by jury in Alaska "is preserved to the same extent as it existed at common law." Alaska Const. art. I, § 16.
No right to trial by jury attaches to an action for a statutory remedy unless the statute so provides or the statutory remedy
is a codification of a common law remedy. Diedrich v. City of Ketchikan, 805 P.2d 362, 367 (Alaska 1991). 1
