The Prima Facie Case Of Age Discrimination In Reduction-In-Force Cases, Jessica Lind
The Prima Facie Case Of Age Discrimination In Reduction-In-Force Cases, Jessica Lind
Michigan Law Review
This Note proposes that courts require the plaintiff in a RIF case to show, as part of her prima facie burden, that the employer reassigned at least part of her job responsibilities to a younger individual of equal or lesser qualifications. Part I describes the analytical framework applied to most intentional discrimination cases the McDonnell Douglas framework. Part II explains that the RIF plaintiff cannot meet the specific requirements of the prima facie case as articulated in McDonnell Douglas because her firing occurs in conjunction with the elimination of her position. This Part then examines two approaches taken by the …
Due Process Review Under The Railway Labor Act, Christopher L. Sagers
Due Process Review Under The Railway Labor Act, Christopher L. Sagers
Michigan Law Review
This Note contends that the RLA prohibits due process review and further argues that such a result is constitutional. Part I examines the statutory language of the RLA itself and contends that it limits district court review to the three statutory grounds. Part II argues that the Supreme Court's opinion in Sheehan reaffirms this interpretation because the Court's language unmistakably conveys an intent to bar due process review. Part III explains that such a limitation does not violate the Constitution. The only constitutional provision that could be implicated in an RLA proceeding, the right of procedural due process, is protected …
Without Distinction: Recognizing Coverage Of Same-Gender Sexual Harassment Under Title Vii, Trish K. Murphy
Without Distinction: Recognizing Coverage Of Same-Gender Sexual Harassment Under Title Vii, Trish K. Murphy
Washington Law Review
Federal court decisions conflict regarding the applicability of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to sexual harassment cases where the alleged harasser and victim are members of the same gender. This Comment examines the courts' treatment of same-gender sexual harassment claims and argues that same-gender sexual harassment claims fall within the purview of Title VII as impermissible discrimination. In reaching this position, this Comment demonstrates that Title VII lacks gender-based limitations. It then argues that no valid justification exists for distinguishing between same-gender sexual harassment and sexual harassment involving members of different genders. Finally, this Comment suggests …
Straight-Time Overtime And Salary Basis: Reform Of The Fair Labor Standards Act, Garrett Reid Krueger
Straight-Time Overtime And Salary Basis: Reform Of The Fair Labor Standards Act, Garrett Reid Krueger
Washington Law Review
The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) was passed in 1938 in response to oppressive working conditions and a depressed economy. While FLSA's overtime provisions may have been responsive to the workplace of the 1930s, they are now outdated in the flexible, service-oriented economy of the 1990s and in need of revision. FLSA's salary basis test and corresponding inconsistent treatment of straight-time overtime payments are examples of excessively wooden provisions. Originally adopted to separate well-compensated white-collar employees from blue-collar line workers in need of statutory protection, the salary basis test no longer effectively serves as a gatekeeper for FLSA's overtime provisions. …

Accommodating Equality In The Unionized Workplace, Katherine Swinton
Accommodating Equality In The Unionized Workplace, Katherine Swinton
Osgoode Hall Law Journal
This article explores the appropriate relationship between human rights and collective bargaining laws through an examination of the Supreme Court of Canada's jurisprudence on the duty to accommodate. While collective bargaining can be an important force to promote equality for disadvantaged groups, resistance to changing the terms of collective agreements to accommodate those groups can arise, especially when other employees' seniority rights are affected. The emerging jurisprudence suggests that seniority rights will be respected in many situations, especially in layoffs, but the article outlines circumstances in which accommodation will be necessary to vindicate equality rights.

The Last Minuet: Disparate Treatment After Hicks, Deborah C. Malamud
Michigan Law Review
The purpose of this article is to explain why the Court's much-maligned decision in Hicks was correct, and to further argue that in the aftermath of Hicks, the McDonnell Douglas-Burdine proof structure ought to be abandoned.

Labor Law, Stephen W. Mooney, Leigh Lawson Reeves
Labor Law, Stephen W. Mooney, Leigh Lawson Reeves
Mercer Law Review
This Article surveys the 1994 decisions of the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit that impacted on the areas of traditional labor law. This Article specifically addresses decisions by the Eleventh Circuit under the National Labor Relations Act ("NLRA7), the Labor Management Relations Act ("LMRA"), the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 ("FLSA7), the Occupational Safety and Hazard Act ("OSHA), and the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA7).
Given the volume of cases decided by the Eleventh Circuit in the area of traditional labor law this past survey year, this Article does not address every …
Employment Discrimination, Peter Reed Corbin, John E. Duvall
Employment Discrimination, Peter Reed Corbin, John E. Duvall
Mercer Law Review
Perhaps the most surprising development during the 1994 survey period is what did not happen, as opposed to what did happen. The anticipated stampede of decisions under the Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990 (the "ADA"), has not yet happened, at least at the circuit court of appeals level. Not a single ADA case was handed down by the Eleventh Circuit during the survey period. Since, at last count, there were over 30,000 ADA charges pending at the administrative charge level, this most certainly will change in the very near future. The year 1994 will also be remembered as the …
