132394P.pdf   05/22/2014  Ellen Robinson  v.  American Red Cross
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  13-2394
   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas - Little Rock   
[PUBLISHED] [Murphy, Author, with Wollman and Gruender, Circuit Judges] Civil Case - employment discrimination. District court's grant of summary judgment on race discrimination claim in failure to promote, failure to train, and termination are affirmed. By failing to oppose summary judgment on failure to promote, Robinson waived those claims. Robinson failed to establish a prima facie case of race discrimination for failure to hire for the On the Job Instructor position or for failure to train her. Because Robinson failed to meet her employer's legitimate expectations, she cannot establish a prima facie case that she was suspended or terminated because of her race. She also did not show that similarly situated employees were treated differently. Finally, she did not demonstrate a causal connection between her charge of discrimination and the adverse actions. The state law claim of outrage failed.
