How courts have described this case

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

  • finding that plaintiff established prima facie case when she showed that she was discharged two weeks after her supervisor learned of her son’s medical diagnosis, which would have imposed substantial costs on the employer’s insurer
  • finding plaintiff’s state associational disability discrimination claim lacked merit because O.R.C. § 4112.02 contained no such prohibition
  • “temporal proximity between termination of employment and an event signaling increased costs to a benefit program can ‘support an inference that the adverse actions were taken with the intent of interfering with future . . . benefits.’”
  • “[T]he Smiths do not deny that several customers complained about Mrs. Smith’s performance. The Smiths thus cannot demonstrate that the stated reasons for the discharge were ‘unworthy of credence’ in the sense that they had no basis in fact.”
