Marchant v. Sands Taylor & Wood Co.

How courts have described this case

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

• holding that a co-worker’s “habit of ‘stand[ing] in the area and star[ing] at [plaintiff] in an effort to intimidate her’” does not constitute an adverse employment action
• holding teacher failed to show an adverse employment action because she had not shown any negative consequences resulting from the alleged denial of professional training
• explaining that a change in office, without more, ordinarily does not support a claim of discrimination
• noting that an adverse employment action is a materially adverse change in employment conditions, and must be “more disruptive than a mere inconvenience or an alteration of job responsibilities”
• rejecting the plaintiff’s argument that “excessive scrutiny” and a move to a “poorly ventilated, windowless office” plausibly pleaded a hostile work environment
• denying motion to dismiss even though the complaint was “thin on specifics—both as to how each comparator [was] similarly situated to [Plaintiff] and what disparate treatment he or she was subjected to.”
