Thompson v. Clear Channel Communications, Inc.

How courts have described this case

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

• denying motion to dismiss where four Bormann factors supported the plaintiff's argument that the agreement was not knowingly and voluntarily executed
• “Mere hard bargaining positions, if lawful . . . will not be deemed duress.” (citation omitted)
• “Plaintiff invokes the magical word ‘duress,’ but in so doing he merely states a legal conclusion unsupported by enough facts to cross the line into the realm of plausible.”
• “Plaintiff appears to offer little more than a highly speculative argument that because Columbia's immigration-related action occurred later in time than his first EEOC Complaint, the Court should infer retaliatory motive. This argument does not suffice.”
