Damarious Walker v. Rent-A-Center

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit
Damarious Walker v. Rent-A-Center, 301 F. App'x 490 (6th Cir. 2008)

Damarious Walker v. Rent-A-Center

Opinion

COOK, Circuit Judge.

Plaintiff Damarious Walker alleges that Frank Guiser, a Rent-A-Center employee, made several racist comments to Walker during a telephone conversation about overdue payments on a lease-purchase agreement. Claiming violations of 42 U.S.C. § 1981 and Ohio Rev.Code § 1345.03, as well as breach of contract, Walker sued Guiser, Rent-A-Center, and a John Doe supervisor. Guiser and Rent-A-Center successfully moved for summary judgment. With the benefit of oral argument, and having studied the record and the briefs, we agree with the district court. Because a separate opinion would only duplicate the efforts, we affirm the district court’s judgment, which adopted the analysis supporting the magistrate judge’s report and recommendation and granted summary judgment to Guiser and Rent-A-Center.
