• concluding that a racially discriminatory remark made five months before the plaintiff’s discharge was “too remote in time and context to support a reasonable inference” of discrimination
• holding that an inappropriate comment that was unconnected to the plaintiff’s discharge and made five months prior to termination was “too remote in time and context” to support plaintiff’s discrimination claim
• finding that an isolated remark made five months before the plaintiff’s discharge was “too remote in time and 15 context to support a reasonable inference” that discharge was a result of discrimination
• statements that business was “financially sound, had a balanced trading book, and had sound risk management processes” constitute puffery and are insufficient to induce reasonable reliance as a matter of law
• “56.1 statements not explicitly denied by plaintiff are deemed admitted.”
