How courts have described this case

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

  • dismissing hostile work environment claim because the plaintiff failed to plead a causal connection between his protected status and the alleged hostile work environment
  • dismissing the plaintiff’s employment discrimination claim because she had failed to contend, unlike in the instant case, that her comparator(s) were similarly situated to herself
  • dismissing a Title VII claim where an allegedly discriminatory comment was “far removed in time” and “tangential . . . to the Plaintiff's ultimate discharge”
  • describing a claim of being singled out as worthy of dismissal where “there were no allegations to suggest that the [act] … constituted ridicule or insult”
  • “The fact that the [p]laintiff was the only Filipino in his office is not sufficient to connect the [d]efendants’ actions and behavior to a discriminatory intent.”
  • “Without any further facts, defendant’s statements, while politically incorrect, do not raise a plausible inference that his actions towards the [plaintiffs] were a result of [their] membership in a protected class.”
