How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- holding that plaintiff’s conclusoiy statement that no other individuals outside her protected class suffered similar abuse amounted to a subjective and unsupported belief that was insufficient to raise a genuine issue of material fact under the NYCHRL
- finding that the plaintiff failed to raise a triable issue of fact as to whether the plaintiff “ha[d] been treated less well than other employees because of her gender” under the NYCHRL
- explaining that “the NYCHRL, like Title VII and the NYSHRL, is still not a general civility code, and petty slights and trivial inconveniences are not actionable”
- noting that “[t]he standard for a hostile work environment claim is demanding, and the plaintiff must prove that the conduct was offensive, pervasive, and continuous enough to amount to a constructive discharge”
- finding Title VII retaliation claim insufficient because an “11 month gap is too long to allow for an inference of causation without any other evidence”
- granting summary judgment to defendants where plaintiff's only evidence of race-based hostile work environment was the fact that “no other non-African American [] suffered similar abuse”
