Evan L. Conder

• Won a partial motion to dismiss in federal court on behalf of a senior living facility. The court agreed that the employee had failed to file the required charge of discrimination with the EEOC as to her claims of discrimination on the basis of her genetic information and disability, as well as her retaliation claim. Although she had filed a charge alleging failure to provide a religious accommodation, her other claims were not sufficiently related to that claim to meet the charge prerequisite.
• Successfully obtained summary judgment for a non-profit. At issue was the regular rate of pay for employees working in different positions. The organization compensated the plaintiffs’ work in each position at different rates, which the plaintiffs argued was a way to circumvent paying employees correctly; however, the federal court found the organization’s method of calculating pay to be lawful.
• Won a motion to dismiss defamation claims brought by two former company employees. The federal court found that the company’s internal communications about possible fraud by the employees were lawful.
