192875P.pdf   12/29/2020  Melissa Maras  v.  The Curators of the University
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  19-2875
   U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri - Jefferson City   
   [PUBLISHED] [Arnold, Author, with Colloton and Kelly, Circuit Judges] 
   Civil Case - Employment Discrimination. Following a denial of tenure as 
   associate professor, Maras sued the university and participants in the 
   tenure-review process, alleging sex discrimination under state and federal 
   law and breach of implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. The 
   district court's grant of summary judgment to the defendants is affirmed, 
   as Maras failed to show circumstances to permit a reasonable inference of 
   discriminatory animus or that her sex contributed to the university's 
   decision.
