Debra Novak-Scott v. City of Phoenix
Opinion
Debra Novak-Scott, a City of Phoenix employee, appeals the district court’s summary judgment dismissing her Title VII retaliation claim against the City of Phoenix. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm. We review a district court’s grant of summary judgment de novo. Head v. Glacier, 413 F.3d 1053, 1058 (9th Cir. 2005).
The district court properly concluded that Ms. Novak-Scott failed to establish a prima facie case of retaliation. She did not suffer the type of significant harm that would dissuade a reasonable worker from making or supporting a charge of discrimination. Burlington N. & Santa Fe Ry. Co. v. White, 548 U.S. 53, 60, 126 S.Ct. 2405, 165 L.Ed.2d 345 (2006). Accordingly, for the reasons stated by the district court, summary judgment was properly granted for the City of Phoenix.
AFFIRMED.
