Parker v. Arizona

How courts have described this case

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

• indicating that where claims of hostile work environment and constructive discharge are based on the “same allegations,” the failure of the former renders harmless “any error in dismissing the [latter]”
• explaining that analysis should not focus on existence of economic injury but should instead focus on whether the action “might have dissuaded a reasonable employee from making or supporting a charge of discrimination”
• noting that “consequences befalling the plaintiff outside the employment environment” may suffice
• concluding, in Title VII context, that the pretext inquiry depends on “whether the employer’s stated reasons were held in good faith at the time” that the adverse action was taken (quoting Young, 468 F.3d at 1250)
• reversing and remanding a retaliation claim for trial based upon false opposition to unemployment benefits
• finding no materially adverse employment action when the defendant’s conduct caused no interruption in the plaintiff’s unemployment benefits
