Question:
1. What were the legal issues in this case? What did the court decide?
2. How were the reemployment provisions of the USERRA violated in this case?
3. Was the plaintiff still qualified to be a police officer? Wasn't the department justified in being concerned about possible misconduct that occurred while the officer was in Iraq?
4. Why does the court conclude that he has a claim for discrimination under USERRA? How does a discrimination claim under USERRA differ from a reemployoment claim?
5. What should the police department have done differently?
