How courts have described this case

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

• “[T]aking FMLA leave constitutes a ‘protected activity,’ [and] termination constitutes an ‘adverse employment decision.’” (citation omitted)
• “Because the DCHRA definition of ‘disability’ closely resembles the definition of disability found in the [ADA] . . . we have considered decisions construing the ADA as persuasive in our decisions construing comparable sections of the DCHRA.” (cleaned up)
• “To establish a prima facie case of retaliatory termination under the DCFMLA, a plaintiff must demonstrate that: (1) [he] was engaged in a protected activity; (2) [his] employer took an adverse employment action; and (3) there was a causal connection between the two.”
