4231 REVIEW DENIED Even if there were other, non-legitimate, reasons for a public entity's termination of a temporary employee, the fact that she had already worked more hours than a local ordinance permitted temporary employees to work required the termination and provided a legitimate non-discriminatory reason for it; California law makes the status of a public employee dependent on statute and ordinance rather than contract, and a federal ruling based on misinterpretation of this law and concluding that plaintiff was actually a regular, rather than temporary, employee does not preclude reconsideration of the issue by a California court.CitationJENKINS v COUNTY OF RIVERSIDE (Temporary Employee) 138 CA4 593 [See: GovC 12900 etseq; Shoemaker v Myers 52 C3 1; Jenkins v County 398 F3 1093; McGillicuddy v CSC 133 CA 782]
