Jaburek v. Foxx, No. 15-2165 (7th Cir. 2016)
Annotate this CaseJaburek, a woman of Mexican descent, began working for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) at its Des Plaines, Illinois, office in 1987. After various promotions and raises, followed by reassignment to her earlier position, there was a dispute about her responsibilities. She filed suit, alleging that the FAA paid her less than other employees who did the same work that she did but did not share her protected class status, and that the FAA retaliated against her for complaining about such discrimination, asserting: failure to promote in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, 42 U.S.C. 2000e.; violation of the Equal Pay Act, 29 U.S.C. 206(d); and a Title VII retaliation claim. The Seventh Circuit affirmed summary judgment in favor of the FAA, stating that Jaburek failed to produce the necessary evidence to establish prima facie claims for any of her causes of action.
