Alessandra Nicole ROGERS, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. Stanton RIGGS; Clay Corn; Dina Holcomb; Daniel Ornelas; Susan Goldstrom, in their official and individual capacities; Chaves County, Defendants-Appellees.

United States Court of Appeals, Tenth Circuit.

FILED June 27, 2023.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Heather Burke , Burke Law, Santa Fe, New Mexico, for Plaintiff-Appellant.

Jonlyn M. Martinez , Law Office of Jonlyn M. Martinez, LLC, Albuquerque, New Mexico, for Defendants-Appellees.

Before TYMKOVICH, BACHARACH, and PHILLIPS, Circuit Judges.

1. The plaintiff quits her job and sues.
