Kilcrease v. Domenico Transportation, No. 15-1320 (10th Cir. 2016)
Annotate this CasePlaintiff-appellant Mark Kilcrease was a commercial truck driver temporarily unable to work due to the effects of cancer. After his cancer went into remission, plaintiff applied for a truck-driving position with Domenico Transportation Company. Domenico rejected plaintiff's application, and he filed suit, alleging discrimination and retaliation in violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The district court granted summary judgment to Domenico on both claims, and plaintiff appealed. After review, the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals concluded that the district court properly granted summary judgment on both claims. With respect to his discrimination claim, the Court agreed with the district court that plaintiff failed to demonstrate he was a qualified individual within the meaning of the ADA and therefore could not establish a prima facie case of discrimination. With respect to his retaliation claim, the Court concluded plaintiff could not show the requisite nexus between his ADA complaints and an adverse employment action.
