Tyler v. Missouri Highways & Transportation Commission
Opinion
John W. Tyler (“Tyler”), an African-American, claims that the Missouri Highways and Transportation Commission (“MHTC”) denied him promotions because of his race and retaliated against him after he filed a discrimination complaint. The district court 1 granted summary judgment in favor of MHTC.
After a careful review of the record and the parties’ briefs, we conclude that the *548 district court correctly granted summary judgment in favor of MHTC and that an extended opinion would add nothing of substance to the well-reasoned opinion of the district court. Therefore, we summarily affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. 2
. The Honorable Audrey G. Fleissig, United States Magistrate Judge for the Eastern District of Missouri, to whom the case was referred for final disposition by consent of the parties pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c).
. We also grant Tyler’s motion for leave to file a corrected brief and deny MHTC’s motion to dismiss.
