Question Presented (AI Summary)

Is a petition written, signed and circulated outside of work by 45 current and former county employees and delivered to their elected officials, a matter of Group Speech under Janus, or as the lower court ruled, not a matter of public concern under the Garcetti/Pickering line of cases, which this Court has never applied to Group Speech?

Question Presented (OCR Extract)

question presented here is whether the mention of a legal test in a prior court order can provide sufficient notice to the non-movant to trigger the prospective duty to respond to an argument not raised by the movant in summary judgment.
