Darryl G. McCallum

• Won summary judgment for a public school system on an employee’s claim of retaliation for his complaint of age discrimination. The federal district court held that the employee could not show that his non-selection for promotion was based on anything other than his lesser qualifications for the role and that he did not experience any other incidents rising to the level of an adverse employment action.
• Won summary judgment for a hospital system. The federal district court threw out the plaintiff’s claims of disability discrimination and retaliation under the Americans with Disabilities Act, finding that the employer had presented ample evidence of legitimate reasons for the employment actions taken, including the plaintiff’s termination.
• Successfully defended a county public school system against discrimination and retaliation claims. The federal district court granted summary judgment to the employer, finding that the employer had taken the employment actions at issue for reasons other than the plaintiff’s race or national origin and not because of plaintiff’s internal complaints.
