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

• noting that “the protected activity must have 11 occurred prior to the alleged acts of retaliation”
• granting summary judgment for failure to show adverse employment action, when plaintiff did not allege any material change in his working conditions
• “The action of filing a complaint alleging employment discrimination with the proper state and federal agencies is clearly protected activity under Title VII”
• loss of opportunity for overtime and loss of supervisory responsibility insufficient to establish that lateral transfer was an adverse employment action
• no adverse employment action, despite loss of overtime and supervisory responsibilities, because no change in pay or benefits and no other conditions existed which would make working conditions intolerable
• no “loss of prestige or an objectively demeaning change of working conditions”; new title and “the loss of opportunity for overtime and the loss of supervisory responsibility” insufficient to constitute adverse employment action
