How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- “[l]egitimate expectations” means “simply bona fide expectations, for it is no business of a court in a discrimination case to decide whether an employer demands ‘too much’ of his workers”
- “[Evidence [of pretext] would be relevant if Coco could show that he was performing up to his employer’s legitimate expectations; but as he cannot, the question of the reason for his discharge does not arise.”
