Griffin v. Jtsi, Inc.

How courts have described this case

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

• “Though an employee may always present direct evidence of motive, proximity in time is one type of circumstantial evidence that is sufficient on its own to meet the plaintiff’s burden.”
• “Given the clear legislative intent, Plaintiffs may properly raise their Parnar claim for wrongful termination in violation of public policy, even when that public policy is whistleblower protection under the HWPA.”
• “[G]iven the close temporal proximity between Plaintiffs’ reporting to outside government officials and their ultimate removal and termination ... a reasonable jury could infer that Plaintiffs were removed and terminated because of their [protected activity.]”
• “In other words, a reasonable inference can be made that Defendant . . . may have already planned on terminating Plaintiffs, but waited until the government requested their removal in order to disguise its retaliatory motivation.”
