Pursuant to the Order entered in this matter on this date, the Court grants in part and

for summary judgment on plaintiff’s claims under the First Amendment, enters judgment in 

favor of defendant on plaintiff’s First Amendment claims for the reasons set out in the Order, 

and dismisses with prejudice plaintiff’s First Amendment claims. To the extent that the Order 

does not dispose of plaintiff’s claims under the Arkansas Public Employees Political Freedom 

Act, the Court declines to exercise supplemental jurisdiction over such claims and dismisses 

without prejudice those claims. The Court grants defendant’s motion for summary judgment as 

to plaintiff’s claims under the federal Fair Labor Standards Act and the Arkansas Minimum 

Wage Act, enters judgment in favor of defendant on those claims for the reasons set out in the 

Order, and dismisses with prejudice those claims. The Court denies as moot defendant’s motion 

for summary judgment on plaintiff’s claims for damages.
