Judge Axes Postal Worker's Claims Against DeJoy in Summary Judgment

A California federal judge on Monday granted summary judgment in favor of Postmaster General Louis DeJoy, dismissing all claims brought by postal worker Zepuor Parsanian in an employment dispute.

Zepuor Parsanian, a postal worker, filed suit against Postmaster General Louis DeJoy and other defendants in what appears to be an employment-related dispute. The case involved claims against the U.S. Postal Service leadership, though the specific nature of Parsanian's allegations was not detailed in the brief judgment order.

U.S. District Judge Fernando L. Aenlle-Rocha granted DeJoy's motion for summary judgment, finding in the defendants' favor on all claims. The judge referenced a separate order explaining his reasoning for the dismissal, though those details were not included in the judgment document filed Monday.

The case was filed in 2023 in the Central District of California. DeJoy had moved for summary judgment, arguing that Parsanian's claims lacked merit as a matter of law. The motion was granted after briefing and consideration by the court.

The ruling represents another victory for DeJoy, who has faced various legal challenges during his tenure as postmaster general. The dismissal of all claims suggests the court found Parsanian's case fundamentally flawed, either factually or legally, though the specific grounds remain unclear without the accompanying order.
