Case: Discrimination/Race Discrimination (D. Or.)

The Title VII of the Civil Rights Act and state law racial discrimination and retaliation claims of the only Black city of Yachats employee survives summary judgment, an Oregon federal district court ruled, where her testimony of being ignored after offering to serve as the interim city manager—a job filled by less-qualified White candidates—plausibly alleges an adverse employment action, and the city manager relieving her of multiple duties after she complained supports her retaliation claim.
