October 23, 2007: Labor and Employment - A university employee's
involvement of the police in an employment dispute was protected conduct
that prohibited retaliatory action where the police involvement was
derived from an effort to protect against actions that were intertwined
and interrelated with alleged sexual harassment. The employee's call to
the police constituted protected activity under Title VII, as he was
threatened and physically accosted as a result of his rejection of his
supervisor's sexual advances, and could not constitute a legitimate,
non- retaliatory basis for termination.
