U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri - St. Louis
[PUBLISHED] [Riley, Author, with Gruender and Kelly, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - Employment discrimination. Jury verdict in favor of plaintiff
on his claim defendants discriminated against him based on his race by
denying his application for a transfer to the position of Assistant
Academy Director is affirmed; the position plaintiff applied for had
supervisory duties, more regular hours, greater prestige and chance for
advancement, and the denial of a transfer to this position constituted an
adverse employment action; there was sufficient evidence for a jury to
find that the defendants conspired to deny plaintiff the transfer based on
his race.
