How courts have described this case

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

• holding that the plaintiffs generalized statements about relative qualifications or treatment of similarly situated employees is insufficient to defeat summary judgment
• stating that an employee’s failure to “refer the Court to any particularized evidence to support his subjective view of the facts” undermined his ability to rebut his employer’s legitimate, non-discriminatory reason for his termination
• finding charts showing compensation disparities “are insufficient to create a reasonable inference of age discrimination” where plaintiff failed to show pretext
• finding that plaintiff failed to prove gap between his pay and that of recent hires was based on race and further finding lack of proof that plaintiff was discriminated against when he did not receive an equity adjustment because other employees within same protected class did receive one
• \[F]ailure to provide notice may be harmless error.... if all of the nonmovant's additional evidence is reviewed by the appellate court and none of the evidence presents a genuine issue of material fact.\ (internal citation and quotation mark omitted)
