Back on the Case: Fifth Circuit Reexamines Detective's Race Suit

Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 requires that an individual show that he or she was subjected to an "adverse employment action" in order to proceed on a claim of discrimination. Courts have defined "adverse employment action" to include employment actions that affect the terms and conditions of an individual's employment, and may include termination, failure to hire, failure to promote, demotion and unequal pay, among others.
