How courts have described this case

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

• holding that an option of voluntary termination with the right to ask for one’s old job later is not a reasonable accommodation
• holding that employer’s undue hardship defense failed where a reasonable jury could conclude that one of the accommodation options proposed would not have imposed an undue hardship
• holding that an \employee must make the request reasonably clear so as to alert the employer to the fact that the request is motivated by a religious belief\
• finding that an employer could not show 10 undue hardship when an employee requested three weeks of unpaid leave because the 11 employer “expected and planned for the frequent turnover of employees”
• observing “it is not enough for the belief to be religious in nature, it must also be the employee’s own religious belief”
• referring to the third prong of a prima facie case as a \causation\ element and holding that plaintiff had submitted sufficient evidence to support an inference that his \religious observance caused his termination\
