Case: Discrimination/Retaliation (D. Utah)

A Utah federal district court denied Bristol Hospice Holdings, Inc.'s motion for judgment as a matter of law on a female human resources employee’s retaliation claim under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, finding sufficient evidence that the employer’s stated reasons for termination were pretextual and that her protected activity of filing a discrimination charge was the real reason for her termination, while also denying the defendant’s motion on punitive damages and granting plaintiff’s motion to exclude the Kolstad good-faith defense instruction.
