LawProf Call for Joining Amicus Brief in Southwest Medical Center v. Nassar Title VII Retaliation Case
Sandra Sperino (Cincinnati) writes to tell us that a group of employment law professors (inlcuding yours truly) is submitting an amicus brief in support of the Respondent in the University of Southwestern Medical Center v. Nassar case currently pending before the Supreme Court.
As many of you might know, this case concerns the causation standard applied to Title VII retaliation claims. Amici are arguing that such claims may proceed under a “motivating factor” standard.
If you would like to obtain a copy of the brief and sign on to it, please contact Sandra at sandra.sperino@uc.edu.
She hopes to have all signers on board by Monday, April 1.
