Summary judgment granted in discrimination case

Menefee v. Louisiana Pacific Corp., 2006 WL 2022914(E.D.Tex. Jul 17, 2006) (NO. CIVA 9:06CV49)
Judge: Ron Clark, Judith Guthrie
Division: Lufkin
Holding: Defendant's Motion for Summary Judgment GRANTED
COMMENTS:
This is a racial discrimination case filed pro se by the plaintiff against his former employer.  After being transferred from Houston to Lufkin, the case was assigned to Magistrate Judge Guthrie for all pretrial proceedings.  She recommended that the defendant's motion for summary judgment be granted, holding that the Plaintiff had not shown that there is a genuine issue of material fact concerning whether the defendant's legitimate, nondiscriminatory reasons for the termination of his employment were pretextual.  Judge Clark agreed, and granted the motion for summary judgment.
