question

There is a newcomer who joins a small town in the middle of nowhere, where she gets a job as a city employee. The city manual requires that newcomers pay a higher contribution to the city's employee betterment fund for the first three years of employment. Newcomer refuses to pay a higher contribution than other employees, whereupon she is terminated. Can she make a successful equal protection argument to fight for her job?

choices

  1. No, she is not a member of a suspect class as there cannot be a "class-of-one" in the employment law context.
  2. No, the request for the contribution was not unreasonable and cannot support an equal protection argument.
  3. Yes, she can claim a class of one who is being discriminated against.
  4. Yes, she can claim membership in a group of newcomers who are coming and are being treated differently than everyone else, even if she is the only newcomer she knows of at this time.
