Barreras V. New Mexico Corrections Department

Plaintiffs sought relief in district court alleging wrongful termination by defendants. Plaintiffs asserted claims based on breach of contract and deprivation of constitutional rights. In December 1987, defendants moved to dismiss plaintiffs' complaint. Subsequently, in June 1990, the trial court entered its order dismissing plaintiffs' claims directly alleging breach of contract, but denying defendants' motion in all other respects.
