Gail Gower v. Grundy County, Tennessee

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit
Gail Gower v. Grundy County, Tennessee, 318 F. App'x 369 (6th Cir. 2009)

Gail Gower v. Grundy County, Tennessee

Opinion

SUHRHEINRICH, Circuit Judge.

Plaintiff-Appellant Gail Gower appeals from the order of the district court granting summary judgment on her claims of age and gender discrimination and retaliation in violation of both state and federal law. In particular, Plaintiff claims she was wrongfully terminated based on her gender and wrongfully not hired back for the same discriminatory reason, in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (“Title VII”), 42 U.S.C. § 2000e et seq., and 42 U.S.C. § 1983. She also claims she was retaliated against, in violation of Title VII, for refusing to administer medications, for complaining about pay practices, and for filing two charges of discrimination with the Tennessee Human Rights Commission.

After carefully reviewing the record, the parties’ briefs, and the applicable law, 1 this Court determines that no jurisprudential purpose would be served by a panel opinion. We therefore AFFIRM the district court’s judgment for the reasons stated in that court’s well-reasoned memorandum and order granting Defendants’ motion for summary judgment dated August 7, 2007, and as supplemented by the district court’s memorandum and order granting in part and denying in part Plaintiffs motion for reconsideration dated March 4, 2008.

. The parties waived oral argument before this Court.
