How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- holding that “minimal burden” to establish legitimate, nondiscriminatory reason was satisfied where plaintiff received “below expectations” ratings in the “lateness” category on job performance reviews
- stating that the plaintiff did not “offer even a denial of the facts underlying” the alleged adverse employment action — a “lateness evaluation” — and, consequently, that the plaintiff failed to establish his claim of retaliation
- dismissing discrimination claims on summary judgment where the plaintiff failed to offer any rebuttal to the defendant’s nondiscriminatory reason to show pretext
- prima facie case of retaliation can be shown by “circumstantial evidence such as disparate treatment of fellow employees who engaged in similar conduct.”
- “‘An employee is privileged to report and protest workplace discrimination, whether that discrimination be actual or reasonably perceived.’”
