Lakteen v. Clark County
Opinion of the Court
MEMORANDUM
Angela Lakteen appeals from the district court’s summary judgment in favor of Clark County, Nevada (“County”), in her action alleging violations under Title VII and 42 U.S.C. § 1983. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review de novo, Manatt v. Bank of America, 339 F.3d 792, 796 (9th Cir. 2003), and we affirm.
The district court properly granted summary judgment to the County on Lakteen’s hostile work environment claim, because Lakteen’s conclusory assertions were insufficient to show that she was subject to conduct that was “severe or pervasive enough to alter the conditions of her employment and create an abusive work environment.” Brooks v. City of San Mateo, 229 F.3d 917, 923 (9th Cir. 2000) (internal quotation marks and brackets omitted).
The district court properly granted summary judgment to the County on Lakteen’s retaliation claim, because Lakteen did not raise a triable issue as to whether the County’s proffered reason for giving her a negative performance review was a pretext for retaliation. See id. at 928.
The district court properly granted summary judgment to the County on Lakteen’s section 1983 claim, because she did
