- holding that the passage of fourteen months between the plaintiff’s initial EEOC charge and the defendant’s alleged retaliatory conduct was not “legally conclusive proof’ against retaliation
- holding that two-year lapse in time was not fatal to plaintiff’s attempt to establish prima facie case of retaliation
- holding that two-year lapse in time was not fatal to plaintiff’s attempt to establish prima facie case of retaliation
- noting that temporal proximity is just “one of the elements in the entire calculation”
- indicating that evidence of retaliatory intent can help to bolster claims of retaliation because dates alone are not conclusive
- finding that fourteen-month delay between a protected activity and a termination will not necessarily preclude a finding of causation when the plaintiff can adduce other evidence suggesting a causal relationship
