ESSAY 1 (50% оf Finаl Exаm Grаde) Please read the fоllоwing fact scenario and provide an answer supported by law and analysis. Apply the concepts you learned in the course in your answer. You should use IRAC to frame your answer when appropriate. Henrik Vogel was born in Germany. He immigrated to the United States, obtained citizenship, and took up residence in Michigan. Vogel was hired by Shadowgate Trading LLC (herein “Shadowgate”) as a full-time employee in 2009 and was terminated in 2023. Vogel contends that throughout his 20-year employment with Shadowgate, he was subjected to frequent and ongoing discrimination based on his national origin. Vogel alleges he was repeatedly called insulting names and subjected to vulgar language by his co-workers. For example, co-workers referred to him with insults and name-calling, such as “s**mbag,” “pyromaniac,” “piece of a**,” “piece of s***,” “stupid a**h***,” “sheep f***er,” and “Russian d*** h***.” According to Vogel, Shadowgate’s supervisory personnel also engaged in coarse and bigoted language directed against him at work. In 2013, there was an incident where Vogel confronted a former supervisor who called him a “dirty Commie." In 2021, another Shadowgate supervisor rudely called him a “f***ing foreigner” and commented, with respect to civil unrest in Germany during the 1980’s, “It seems to me all Germans are barbarians.” The undisputed facts at trial establish that Vogel engaged in similar insulting behavior, calling his co-workers vulgar names, although usually in response to their offensive comments. In October 2023, citing his "vulgar language and confrontational attitude despite several warnings to be more cooperative," Shadowgate terminated Vogel "for cause." Following the termination, Vogel called and sent multiple emails to Shadowgate, complaining that he was not given a chance to tell management that he never received any written warnings before the firing, citing language in the Employee Handbook that read: “Employees may be disciplined, up to termination, after a verbal and a written warning.” Shadowgate ignored all communications from Vogel. In February 2024, Vogel filed suit in U.S. District Court against Ship-R-Us, requesting money damages and declaratory or injunctive relief aimed at preventing Shadowgate (and through example, other employers) from engaging in such discriminatory conduct. Among the allegations were: 1) Discrimination by Shadowgate against Vogel because of his national origin (a violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act); and 2) Failure by Shadowgate to give a written warning before terminating Vogel, despite the Employee Handbook promising such a warning prior to disciplinary action. Question: Will the court likely rule in favor of Vogel on allegation #1, allegation #2, or both? Why or why not? Discuss any defenses that Shadowgate may raise as well.
