Summary

What changed
The Washington Court of Appeals Division II filed an unpublished opinion affirming the lower court's judgment in the civil case Allen Griggs v. Heartland Express of Iowa.

The three-judge panel (authored by Rebecca Glasgow, with concurring opinions from Bradley Maxa and Linda Lee) upheld the trial court's ruling.\n\nParties involved in similar employment disputes before Washington state courts should note that this unpublished opinion carries limited precedential value under GR 14.1(a) and cannot be cited.
