The plaintiff seems to argue that the court erred in granting the defendants’ motion for summary judgment as to count six because a genuine issue of material fact exists as to the cause of her termination. In granting the defendants’ motion for summary judgment as to count six, the court reasoned that no genuine issue of material fact existed as to the reason for the plaintiffs discharge and that the plaintiffs “unsupported factual assertions are insufficient to demonstrate that she was discharged on any other basis, including her criticisms of her coworkers and her supervisors.” The court determined that the plaintiff was unable to state a cause of action under § 31-51q because “she is unable to prove the causal connection between her exercise of her free speech right and her discharge.”
