Federal 7th Circuit Court
Civil Court
Hostile Workplace
Plaintiff filed a lawsuit against her former employer, alleging that her employer created hostile conditions of employment that violated Title VII. The district court granted summary judgment for the employer and plaintiff appealed. The Seventh Circuit affirmed, finding that the facts demonstrated general instances of perceived unfairness in the workplace and not the pervasive, discriminatory harassment required to bring a hostile workplace claim. (ST. EVE and LEE, concurring)
