[i]In a court decision signed by Judge Ernest Hiroshige, the court said Coppedge's claim of discrimination and wrongful termination "fails, and judgment on this claim shall be entered in favor of Caltech." ...during the civil trial, attorneys for JPL painted Coppedge as a difficult employee who pushed his views upon his co-workers. JPL said Coppedge's layoff was in line with agency policy. The court agreed. "The evidence shows that Caltech has a detailed layoff policy, incorporating a layoff ranking process, which (Coppedge's supervisor) carried out. The evidence clearly shows that (Coppedge's co-workers) were more qualified than Coppedge regarding the skills needed on the project going forward, such as SCO/ITL, web servers, and Linux, and that Coppedge had a history of poor customer relationships, particularly in comparison to the other System Administrators," the judgement said.[/i]
