   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  11-2294
   U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota - Minneapolis   
   [PUBLISHED] [Benton, Author, with Gruender and Shepherd, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - Employment Discrimination. Assuming plaintiff made a prima facie case of salary discrimination based on race, he did not meet his burden of showing the University's stated reason for his compensation was a pretext for discrimination; plaintiff did not raise his claim of national-origin discrimination based on tribal affiliation in his EEOC charge or his amended complaint; assuming plaintiff made a prima facie case of ADEA salary discrimination, he failed to prove the University's explanation for his salary - compliance with University policy and plaintiff's failure to negotiate - was a pretext for age discrimination; Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act of 2009 did not change the burden of proof on a plaintiff alleging salary discrimination under Title VII or the ADEA; district court did not abuse its discretion in excluding expert testimony that was excessively speculative.
