Our client, a governmental agency, terminated the only three men in its small workforce on the same day and faced allegations that a female supervisor discriminated against the men because of their gender. CDF drafted a motion for summary judgment, which was granted on all of the claims, and subsequently the federal appellate court upheld the dismissal of the gender discrimination claim.
