427 F. App'x 544

Barbara Kehr v. Principal Life Insurance Co

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Barbara Kehr appeals the district court’s 1 adverse grant of summary judgment in her disability-discrimination action. After careful de novo review, see Murphy v. Mo. Dep’t of Corr., 372 F.3d 979, 982 (8th Cir. 2004), this court affirms. Kehr was not a qualified individual because she admitted she could not perform the essential functions of her job, see Wisbey v. City of Lincoln, Neb., 612 F.3d 667, 672-73 (8th Cir. 2010). Kehr’s pretext argument fails because she failed to present a prima facie case of discrimination.

This court affirms. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
