Case: Discrimination/Race Discrimination (Tex. Ct. App., 9th Dist.)

A Texas Court of Appeals affirmed summary judgment for Valero Services, Inc. on race discrimination, disability discrimination, and retaliation claims under the Texas Commission of Human Rights Act brought by a Black head operator with claimed acute stress disorder and anxiety, finding that he failed to establish prima facie cases by not showing he was treated less favorably than similarly situated employees, not demonstrating his conditions substantially limited a major life activity, and not proving Valero’s legitimate reason for termination was pretextual.
