How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- explaining that ʺ[t]he same‐actor rationale has far less applicabilityʺ when employers hire individuals with a goal other than retaining them as employees
- declining to apply “same actor” principle from Grady where the decisionmaker’s “collateral incentive” to hire plaintiff was to acquire plaintiff’s company
- distinguishing Grady because the “same actor” rationale is usually applied in circumstances where the employer did not have a collateral incentive to hire a particular candidate unlike in cases where the employer had to hire the plaintiff to acquire plaintiffs company
- plaintiff was properly terminated for “disregard of company rules and practices”
