How courts have described this case

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

• summary judgment precluded when an employee is willing to acquire skills necessary for the position, but the employer offered only general assertions of non-discrimination in support of its hiring of younger employees
• retention of younger employees, “increased responsibilities” given to one of them, and firing of plaintiff “suggest that, overall, [the defendant] did in fact treat its younger employees more favorably during the restructuring”
• prima facie case is flexible standard and fourth prong varies depending on circumstances
• doubt about employee’s proffered reasons should be resolved by trier of fact
