Gia P. Hegre v. Alberto-Culver Company
Gia P. Hegre v. Alberto-Culver Company
Opinion
Gia Hegre appeals the district court’s grant of summary judgment in favor of her employer, Beauty Systems Group (BSG), on three claims: (1) a retaliation claim under the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA); (2) a § 1981 retaliation claim; and (3) an intentional infliction of emotional distress claim. After carefully reviewing the record and the district court’s opinion and considering oral arguments, we affirm the judgment.
The district court did not err in concluding Hegre failed to show a reasonable belief that she was disabled for purposes of the ADA and in granting BSG summary judgment on the ADA retaliation claim on that ground. The court also did not err in its analysis and disposition of Hegre’s § 1981 retaliation claim. These two claims having been dismissed, the court did not err in dismissing Hegre’s state law claim due to lack of jurisdiction.
AFFIRMED.
