   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  15-2058
   U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Iowa, Waterloo   
[PUBLISHED] [Riley, Author, with Loken and Shepherd, Circuit Judges] Civil case - Employment discrimination. Plaintiff failed to adduce any evidence that race was a motivating factor in his employer's decision to discipline him for failing to follow instructions concerning the operation of his machine and for producing defective parts; plaintiff's proffer of unsworn and unattested statements from co-workers and his related interrogatory answers did not meet the standards of Rule 56(c)(4), and the district court did not err in granting the employer summary judgment on plaintiff's harassment claim.
