Price v. Federal Express Corp.

A showing that the employers justification is false, coupled with a prima facie case, will not always be enough to prevent summary judgment where no rational factfinder could conclude that the action was discriminatory.

Appeal from the United States District Court For the Southern District of Texas

Plaintiff-Appellant Derosher Price (“Price”) appeals the district court’s grant of summary judgment in favor of Defendant-Appellee Federal Express Corporation (“FedEx”). Price filed suit against FedEx alleging racial discrimination in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. � 2000e et seq., after he applied for a promotion to “Zone Manager,” and was rejected in favor of a white applicant. On appeal, we must decide whether the district court correctly determined that Price had failed to establish a genuine issue as to any material fact showing that he was the victim of intentional discrimination.
