How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • concluding that “even though the jury ignored the verdict sheet instruction” this was a “harmless error that [did] not warrant a new trial” (citations omitted)
  • holding 10-year front pay award was too speculative where plaintiff would reach retirement age in only two years
  • finding that the plaintiff’s evidence demonstrated she subjectively perceived the harassment as hostile and was detrimentally affected by it, and thus a reasonable person in her position would have likely been similarly detrimentally affected
  • finding jury verdict in plaintiff’s favor on ADEA discrimination and retaliation claims for same underlying adverse action not internally inconsistent
  • finding thirteen year age gap between a 59 year old and a 46 year old employee sufficient to establish prima facie claim of age discrimination
  • “For the reasons set forth above, [plaintiff] clearly presented a legally sufficient evidentiary basis for a reasonable jury to find that she suffered an adverse employment action by being terminated by [defendant].”
