From Lee v. Yale Univ., decided yesterday by the Second Circuit (Judges Rosemary Pooler, Richard Sullivan & Beth Robinson):
Bandy Lee appeals from the district court's order dismissing, pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6), her complaint against Yale University following its 2020 decision to not reappoint Lee as a voluntary Assistant Clinical Professor of psychiatry at the Yale School of Medicine after she publicly suggested that a prominent supporter of former President Donald Trump [Alan Dershowitz] had a "shared psychosis" with the former president and had "wholly taken on [his] symptoms by contagion." …
The court rejected "Lee's claims for breach of contract and breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing":
