Allen, whо wоrks аs а custоmer service representаtive (answering phones) for BoxGiant Incorporated, has a medical condition that sometimes (but not always) triggers shaking of the hands and feet (tremors). The company employs 130 workers and is located within the jurisdiction of the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals. For four years, Allen has received high performance evaluations from BoxGiant Incorporated. However, this year his tremors became more frequent (about once every 10 days) and, when they occur, Allen must leave work to receive medical treatment at home. Allen informs his employer of the condition and asks the employer if he can make up missed hours, due to the tremors, during weekends (when he normally is not scheduled to work). The employer denies this request, stating weekend hours are already fully staffed. After missing several days of work within one month due to her condition, Allen is fired. Allen files a complaint with the EEOC. 1. You are the EEOC investigator reviewing this complaint. What statutory factors must be established in order to create a prima facie case? Cite the statute, the type of claim plaintiff is asserting within the statute, and identify and explain each element of that claim that the EEOC would need to establish in order to proceed in a case against the company, citing to both the textbook and lecture. 2. Then, apply the statute, and relevant case law*, to our case to arrive at a conclusion as to whether the plaintiff has established a prima facie case. 3. Then, assuming plaintiff does establish a prima facie case, what is the defendant’s best defense? Explain the elements of the defense, apply it to the case and arrive at a conclusion whether you, as EEOC investigator, find this defendant liable or not. Essay must cite to both the Ch. 13 recorded lecture and Ch. 13 in the textbook. * Note: This essay requires case law support. Remember from our work in week two (learning how to create case briefs using the IRAC method) that legal decisions must be supported by precedent. Thus, you must identify a relevant case (one that has similar facts and similar issue) that was assigned for this chapter that would be binding on this case (SEE SYLLABUS) when writing your answer. Your answer must discuss the facts of the cited case, how those facts are relevant to our case, what the holding was in the cited case, then apply that holding (precedent) to our case to explain the conclusion you reach in our case.
