Civil Case - employment discrimination. Grant of summary judgment to employer on claim of employment discrimination is affirmed. District court erred in requiring employee to show she was performing job satisfactorily rather than being merely qualified to satisfy prima facie case, but employee did not offer proof decision to terminate for verbal abuse was pretextual and did not show racial animus was behind decision to terminate for misconduct. District court's denial of attorneys fees was not an abuse of discretion.
