How courts have described this case

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

• recognizing that termination is an adverse employment action sufficient to support a prima facie case of discrimination
• holding that we may affirm a district court’s grant of summary judgment based on a failure to establish pretext even where the district court only addressed the issue of establishment of a prima facie case
• stating that we may address the issue of pretext in the first instance if the record is sufficiently developed
• noting that the district court erred in finding that the plaintiff failed to establish her prima facie case of gender discrimination when the evidence established that a male took over her position
• plaintiff must show she “suffered an adverse employment action” in a prima facie Title VII discrimination claim
• “If the plaintiff does not satisfy her burden of establishing a genuine issue of material fact that the employer’s reason [for the adverse employment action] was pretextual, the grant of summary judgment in favor of the employer is proper.”
