U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 14-2244
U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Iowa, Waterloo
[PUBLISHED] [Riley, Author, with Colloton and Kelly, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - Employment discrimination. Plaintiff did not mention
defendant's company-wide personnel reorganization or make any claim that
he had been demoted in his complaint to the EEOC and could not allege that
he was demoted under the reorganization; even if the issue was preserved
for review, the claim that implementation of the reorganization was an
adverse employment action was meritless; the addition of job duties did
not constitute a material change in the terms and conditions of employment
and was not an adverse employment action; the lack of an adverse
employment action was fatal to plaintiff's age discrimination claim; the
conduct which plaintiff complained of was not sufficiently severe to
support a hostile work environment claim.
