Adams v. CDM Media USA, Inc.
Annotate this CasePlaintiff applied for a position with CDM Media, USA, Inc. Plaintiff was not hired for the position. Thereafter, Plaintiff filed a complaint alleging that CDM had decided not to hire her because of her age, and therefore, she had been subjected to employment discrimination. The circuit court granted summary judgment for CDM, concluding that Plaintiff had failed to demonstrate that CDM’s reasons for not hiring her were pretextual. The Intermediate Court of Appeals (ICA) affirmed. The Supreme Court vacated the judgments of the lower courts, holding that the trial court erred in granting summary judgment, as CDM did not satisfy its burden to produce a legitimate, nondiscriminatory reason for declining to hire Plaintiff.
