J. Bloom approves a state commission’s motion to dismiss employment discrimination claim by a former employee who alleged he was harassed and fired due to a disability that made him fall asleep on the job. Because the former employee took no action for more than two years after initiating the case, he did not make a good faith effort to serve notice, as required.

J. Albregts refuses to dismiss a black worker's pro se race and national origin discrimination and retaliation claims to proceed. The temp employee says it took longer than normal to receive an offer for full-time employment from Crocs. He also had difficulty obtaining his employee discount code and was ignored when he sought help. That the employee was reassigned after complaining, among other specific allegations, is sufficient to allege retaliation.

J. Peterson grants the U.S. Secretary of the Army's motion for summary judgment in the citizen's pro se lawsuit claiming he was unlawfully denied jobs he applied for with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The citizen has not provided sufficient evidence to show he was denied employment as retaliation for testifying as a witness at his father's EEO hearing in 2002, so his motion for summary judgment is denied, the Army secretary's motion is granted, and the clerk is ordered to close the case.

The dietician did not file her retaliation claim within 180 days, as required. Although her discrimination claim was filed within limitations, it does not extend the deadline for the retaliation claim.

J. Silva grants AutoZone's motion for summary judgment. After the sales associate filed a complaint against a manager for sexual harassment, the ensuing investigation led to the termination of the manager. The sales associate was invited to return to work, but did not, and his employment was then terminated. Though the associate seeks damages against AutoZone, the facts do not support his hostile work environment claim since the manager was fired.

J. Mannion grants summary judgment to a township and two of its town supervisors, who were sued by the police chief and two officers over a dispute considering traffic enforcement. The police said one supervisor, who rebuked them for not ticketing more tractor-trailers on the highway, overstepped his authority and attempted to order them around in retaliation for exercising their First Amendment rights to the irate supervisor. The police failed to show actionable retaliatory conduct, as the town board member’s comments amounted to immature criticism and mere rudeness, and he had no authority to compel the officers to act.
