Syllabus

Civ.R. 56(C), employment discrimination. Plaintiff, a former employee of defendant, filed an action asserting that defendant was liable to her for employment discrimination based upon her race, age, and gender. Defendant filed a motion for summary judgment arguing that plaintiff cannot prove that her position was filled by a member outside the protected class or that her position was filled by a similarly situated probationary employee who engaged in the same conduct was treated more favorably than she was under similar circumstances. The court granted defendant's motion, finding that plaintiff had not presented any evidence that defendant treated her less favorably than similarly situated probationary employees and, thus, could not establish her prima facie case.
