Louis v. Chrysalis Center, Inc.
Louis v. Chrysalis Center, Inc.
Opinion of the Court
We reverse the final summary judgment in favor of appellant’s employer in this action for retaliation under the Florida Civil Rights Act of 1992 (“FCRA”).
The appellate court reviews de novo a summary judgment, examining the record in a light most favorable to the non-moving party. Shirey v. State Farm Mut. Auto. Ins. Co., 94 So.3d 619, 620-21 (Fla. 4th DCA 2012). In her complaint, appellant claimed that appellee, her employer, retaliated against her because she reported sexual harassment by her supervisor. To prove retaliation, appellant must show that: 1) she was engaged in a protected activity; 2) she suffered an adverse employment action; and 3) there was causal relationship between the two. Blizzard v. Appliance Direct, Inc., 16 So.3d 922, 926 (Fla. 5th DCA 2009).
It was undisputed that appellant reported allegations of sexual harassment
Reversed.
