Glenna Pounds v. Thomas Denison

Glenna Pounds filed this action against her former employer, Boise State University (BSU), against its president, John Keiser, and against her former supervisor, Thomas Denison. Upon motion the district court dismissed Pounds complaint because she failed to exhaust available administrative remedies. She has appealed. The issue is whether a classified state employee may resort to a judicial forum to litigate an employment dispute not pursued through the statutory procedures of the Idaho Personnel System Act. We affirm the order of dismissal in part and we vacate in part. We remand for further examination of Pounds tort claim.
