How courts have described this case

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

  • finding that “[t]he higher level of factual specificity demanded of the plaintiffs” at the summary-judgment stage “is the sort of detail most appropriately developed through discovery”
  • finding pleadings insufficient 15 to allege temporal causation when plaintiff pleaded only a vague timeframe
  • collecting cases in which plaintiffs successfully pleaded EPA claims on relatively general allegations, but which had more content than those here
  • 3-4 months between opposition actions and retaliation is too long to establish causation by proximity alone
  • “Where causation is based on temporal proximity alone, the retaliatory action must be “very close” in time to the protected activity to support a prima facie case.”
