How courts have described this case

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

  • holding that conduct over a period of ten days that included a sexual touching, sexually degrading slurs, and a threat was not sufficiently pervasive to alter the term, conditions, or privilege of employment
  • holding that an employee was not adversely for the purpose of an MHRA claim by an employer’s performance warnings and an extension of the employee’s probationary period because the actions did not reduce her pay or hours, or change her job duties
  • summarizing Eighth Circuit precedent and concluding that, to qualify as a hostile work environment, the conduct must “poison [plaintiff’s] work environment or permeate it with intimidation, ridicule, and insult”
