Weaver v. United States Postal Service

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit
Weaver v. United States Postal Service, 50 F. App'x 802 (8th Cir. 2002)

Weaver v. United States Postal Service

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Louise Weaver appeals the District Court’s 2 adverse grant of summary judgment in her employment-discrimination action. Having carefully reviewed the record, see Jacob-Mua v. Veneman, 289 F.3d 517, 520 (8th Cir. 2002) (standard of review), we affirm.

Weaver, who is African American, filed suit against the Postmaster General, claiming race and sex discrimination, disparate treatment, and a hostile work environment based on allegedly unwarranted disciplinary actions taken against her.

We agree with the District Court that Weaver failed to establish the existence of a genuine issue for trial as to any of her claims. See Fed.R.Civ.P. 56(e) (adverse party’s response must show existence of triable issue); Habib v. NationsBank, 279 F.3d 563, 566 (8th Cir. 2001) (holding plaintiff failed to make out prima facie case of discrimination based on circumstantial evidence); Palesch v. Missouri Comm’n on Human Rights, 233 F.3d 560, 566-68 (8th Cir. 2000) (affirming summary judgment against plaintiff’s hostile work environment and disparate treatment claims).

Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
