Carl E. Brant v. Swift-Eckrich Inc.

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit
Carl E. Brant v. Swift-Eckrich Inc., 6 F. App'x 533 (8th Cir. 2001)

Carl E. Brant v. Swift-Eckrich Inc.

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Carl E. Brant appeals the district court’s dismissal of Brant’s disability-discrimination suit against his former employer. We have reviewed the record and agree Brant did not meet the statutory prerequisites for filing his lawsuit. See 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-5(e)(l) (charge of discrimination must be filed with Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) within 180 days of unlawful employment practice); Boersig v. Union Elec. Co., 219 F.3d 816, 821 (8th Cir. 2000) (reasonable-accommodation claim was barred because plaintiff filed EEOC charge after time prescribed by § 2000e-5(e)), cert. denied, 581 U.S. 1113, 121 S.Ct. 857, 148 L.Ed.2d 771 (2001). Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
