At the outset, we note that our review of Gonzalez’s section 1983 claim concerns solely Gonzalez’s letter to Moran on September 28. Although evidence indicates that Gonzalez and Moran previously argued about compliance with discrimination rules, see infra Part IV.B.2, we are unable to perform a Pickering review of Gonzalez’s speech on those occasions because the record does not disclose the “manner, time, and place” of Gonzalez’s statements. See Connick, 461 U.S. at ISO-55, 103 S.Ct. at 1692-93 (describing elements of Pickering balancing test). Accordingly, we pretermit our review of that speech and leave this question for the district court.21
