law 29usc623

  posture appellate review of age-discrimination and retaliation claims
  result claimant-lost

element age-causation : not-satisfied [no-evidence]
  scope merits
  variant hiring/customer-service-and-pay-range-reasons
  fact @15302..15608 [cuts-against] | CUNA Mutual articulated several legitimate nondiscriminatory reasons for preferring Logemann: (1) he had customer-service experience (Wrolstad did not); (2) he showed great enthusiasm for the position; and (3) he was willing to work for a salary within the range established for the job (Wrolstad was not).
  fact @15609..15665 [cuts-against absent] | No evidence suggests that these reasons were pretextual.
  held @15666..15760 | The judge was right to enter summary judgment for CUNA Mutual on the age-discrimination claim.
  gloss The court affirms summary judgment on the actual ADEA treatment claim. Separate new material was forfeited, and the court also discusses it alternatively; that does not turn this case into a rule-only decision.

element enforcement : not-satisfied [law]
  scope procedural
  theory retaliation charge timing
  variant charge-accrual/unequivocal-waiver-enforcement-notice
  fact @2484..2570 [cuts-against] | Wrolstad waited more than 300 days to file his retaliation charge with the Commission.
  held @20762..20840 | The judge correctly concluded that Wrolstad's retaliation charge was untimely.
  gloss The retaliation charge is untimely under the applicable deadline. This is a legal accrual ruling, not an abandonment finding and not a decision about retaliation merits.

misfit The 300-day charge period is contextual, not universal. The same opinion decides treatment merits and retaliation timing on different grounds; typed scope keeps them distinct.
