How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- holding that plaintiff could not meet standard because none of the individuals plaintiff claimed violated the “no fraternization” policy shared the same supervisors as plaintiff
- finding that the plaintiff failed to prove that he was similarly situated after presenting no evidence of similar infractions by comparators
- upholding grant of summary judgment for defendant in Title VII sex discrimination case
- distinguishing the comparators’ violations of a “no fraternization” policy from the plaintiff’s violation of that same policy because the plaintiff’s conduct also involved “harassing behavior and lying”
- affirming summary judgment, in part, because the employee failed to provide a valid comparator
- mere allegations, unsupported by admissible evidence, that supervisors at UPS violated nonfraternization policy insufficient to survive summary judgment
