U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 04-1354
Dodge.
Southern District of Iowa
Civil Case - FMLA. Summary judgment to employer is affirmed.
Claim of front pay damages is waived, as it was presented for first time
on appeal. Assignment following FMLA leave from night services
manager to quality control supervisor resulted in same pay and benefits
and thus employee failed to show damages. Retaliation claim failed
because reassignment from quality control supervisor to service advisor
was not causally related to FMLA leave. Dissent by Judge Lay.
