Sixth Circuit Upholds Dykema’s Victory in Age Discrimination Lawsuit

The Sixth Circuit has upheld a lower court’s ruling in favor of law firm Dykema in an age discrimination lawsuit filed by a former secretary. The former secretary had alleged that her supervisor had presented her with adult diapers on her 50th birthday and often queried her on her retirement plans, facts she interpreted as ageist behavior. Nevertheless, the court ruled she did not provide sufficient evidence to demonstrate that these actions played a role in her dismissal.
