Foster v. JLG INDUSTRIES · filed 2005-06-06

Title VII prohibits discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex or national origin. 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-2. ...

Title VII exclusively addresses discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex or national origin.

Section 2000e-2 requires an employment discrimination claim to allege discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.

Warren v. Schwerman · filed 2005-08-31

Title VII provides redress for employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-2; see also McDonnell Douglas Corp. v. Green, 411 U.S. 792, 800-02 (1973). Warren does not, however, allege discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. Thus, he fails to sufficiently allege a discrimination claim.

Section 2000e-2(a)(1) prohibits employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin; age discrimination alone falls outside it.

Jenkins v. Educational Credit Management Corp. · filed 2007-01-04(a)(1)

Title VII makes it unlawful for an employer to discharge or otherwise discriminate against any individual based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-2(a)(1). ...

Title VII prohibits employers from discriminating against an individual because of “such individual’s race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.” 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-2(a). None of the plaintiffs pleadings contain any allegation that the defendants discriminated against him on any of these bases. Rather, the plaintiff is alleging disability discrimination. Because disability discrimination is not covered by Title VII, the court dismisses the plaintiffs Title VII claim.

Section 2000e-2(a) prohibits discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin, but does not cover age discrimination.

Marrero v. Schindler Elevator Corp. · filed 2007-06-11(a)

Accordingly, the Court will enter judgment dismissing the Title VII claim with prejudice.

Section 2000e-2 prohibits employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin; allegations concerning only disability do not state a claim under it.

Falso v. Sutherland Global Services · filed 2007-07-18

Although plaintiff placed an "X” next to Title VII in his amended complaint, indicating that this action was being brought in part pursuant to Title VII, the factual allegations set forth in the amended complaint relate only to plaintiff's disability, and have no rele-vanee to any discriminatory action outlawed by Title VII, which prohibits only employment discrimination based on an ''individual's race, color, religion, sex, or national origin....” 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-2.

Section 2000e-2 prohibits employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin, but does not cover disability discrimination.

Washburn v. Harvey · filed 2007-10-10

Washburn’s Title VII claim fails because Title VII does not proscribe discrimination on the basis of disability. See 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-2 (prohibiting employment discrimination on the basis of “race, color, religion, sex, or national origin”); Blow v. City of San Antonio, 236 F.3d 293, 296-97 (5th Cir. 2001) (requiring a prima facie showing that the plaintiff is a member of a protected class).

Torres-Alman v. Verizon Wireless Puerto Rico, Inc. · filed 2007-11-13(a)(1)

Section 2000e-2(a) prohibits employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin; it does not cover disability discrimination.

Moore v. Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners · filed 2008-01-08(a)

However, Title VII only makes unlawful discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-2(a). As Plaintiff has alleged that she was retaliated against as a result of her complaint about disability discrimination, which is prohibited by the ADA, Plaintiffs claims will be construed pursuant to the ADA.

Section 2000e-2(a) prohibits employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin; workplace mistreatment unrelated to those characteristics does not state a claim.

Plaintiffs do not address this issue in their opposition, probably because they recognize that Title VII does not prohibit discrimination on the basis of age or disability.

Section 2000e-2 prohibits employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin; a claim must allege facts connecting the employment action to one of those traits.

Falso v. Churchville-Chili Central School District · filed 2008-04-15

Title VII prohibits employers from discriminating against employees on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-2. With respect to his claim that Churchville-Chili terminated his employment in violation of Title VII, Falso alleges no facts that even hint at his termination being the result of his membership in any of those protected classes. Since Falso failed to allege any facts whatsoever that would support his Title VII claims, they must be dismissed.

By its terms, Title VII applies only to claims involving discrimination on the basis of race, color, sex, religion and national origin. ...

Lopez-Baca v. Geren · filed 2008-11-03(a)(1)

Specifically, Title VII prohibits employment discrimination based on an “individual’s race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.” 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-2. As the Government correctly points out, no provision of Title VII proscribes discrimination on the basis of an individual’s disability.

Chiesa v. New York State Department of Labor · filed 2009-07-31

Title VII states employers cannot discriminate against individuals because of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-2. The record in the instant case pertains only to disability. While Chiesa correctly states Title VII prohibits numerous forms of employment discrimination, the discrimination must be caused by one of the characteristics mentioned in § 2000e-2. Plaintiff presents no facts pertaining to any of the mentioned characteristics, creating no issue of fact. The claim will be dismissed.

Section 2000e-2(a)(1) prohibits hiring discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin; it does not protect non-veteran status.

Loos v. Napolitano · filed 2009-10-21(a)

Although the Rehabilitation Act incorporates standards of the ADA and Title VII, Loos, as a former federal employee, is not entitled to separately recover under Title VII and the ADA because (1) Title VII does not apply to disability-discrimination claims, and (2) the ADA excludes from its coverage the United States or corporations wholly owned by the United States.

Jennings v. Sallie Mae, Inc. · filed 2009-12-23

The language limits the scope of the statute to discrimination based on membership in the abovementioned classes.

Section 2000e-2(a)(1) prohibits employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin, but does not cover disability.

Adams v. District of Columbia · filed 2010-09-28(a)(1)

Because Title VII prohibits discrimination based on "race, color, religion, sex, or national origin,” 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-2(a)(l), and because the plaintiff has failed to provide any opposition to the defendant's argument, the court grants the defendant's motion to dismiss those claims.

To the contrary, Plaintiff indicated in her EEOC charge only that she suffered discrimination due to her disability — which is governed by the ADA— and because she was a “civilian member of the [NYPD],” a category of individuals that lies outside the purview of Title VII.

Section 2000e-2(a) prohibits employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin; it does not cover discrimination based on an employee's child's disability.

Greggs v. Autism Speaks, Inc. · filed 2013-03-21(a)

And Title VII proscribes employment discrimination on the basis of an "individual's race, color, religion, sex, or national origin." 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-2(a). Far from the typical Title VII or Section 1981 case, however, plaintiff is alleging that the defendants "discriminated against [her] on the basis of her child's disability by denying her reasonable accommodations in order to perform the job and to take care of her [a]utistic child." ... Because plaintiffs allegations of employment discrimination against the defendants do not "contain sufficient factual matter, accepted as true, to state a claim to relief that is plausible on its face" under either Title VII or Section 1981, Iqbal, 556 U.S. at 678 (citation and internal quotation marks omitted), her causes of actions based thereon must be dismissed.

Lors v. Dean · filed 2013-08-08(a)(1)

... Title VII only pertains to claims brought on the basis of an "individual's race, color, religion, sex, or national origin." 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-2(a)(1). Lors does not claim retaliation on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. Consequently, this court also does not have jurisdiction under Title VII over Lors's claims.

Mattocks v. Family Dollar Stores of Maryland, Inc. · filed 2013-10-10(a)

Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 protects people from discrimination on the bases of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin, not the characteristic of being insured by the Federal Bonding Program. See 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-2(a).

Manley v. Invesco · filed 2014-02-05(b)

Persons with criminal records are not a protected class under Title VII, preventing Manley from basing his Title VII claim on this status, and he does not allege that ProSource failed to refer him because he was Black or male.

Section 2000e-2(a)(1) covers employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin, but not disability.

Lors v. Dean · filed 2014-03-13(a)(1)

... Title VII only pertains to claims brought on the basis of an "individual's race, color, religion, sex, or national origin." 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-2(a)(1). Lors does not claim retaliation on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. Consequently, this court also does not have jurisdiction under Title VII over Lors's claims.

Race and national origin are separate protected classes under Title VII; an African-American employee from Haiti belongs to both.

Plaintiff is African-American and from Haiti, (Def. Mem. 9), and therefore is a member of two protected classes, race and national origin.

Stone v. Board of Trustees of Northern Illinois University · filed 2014-08-05(a)

Briscoe v. Costco Wholesale Corp. · filed 2014-07-29(a)(1)

Section 2000e-2(a) does not protect against workplace harassment based solely on membership in a regional subculture.

Hood v. National Railroad Passenger Corp. · filed 2014-10-28(a)

Higbie v. Kerry · filed 2015-03-20(a)(1)

Cosme-Perez v. Municipality of Juana Diaz · filed 2015-06-26(a)

Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 specifically protects against discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, and national origin. 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-2(a). Discrimination based on age (“ADEA”) and/or disability (“ADA”) is regulated by different federal statutes which essentially function in the same way as Title VII, but nonetheless are separate. In the present case, plaintiff Cosme has claimed discrimination only on the basis of disability and age, which is why this Court concludes that the plaintiff has no claim under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, nor under 42 U.S.C. § 1983.

Section 2000e-2(a)(1) prohibits employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin, but not age.

Guzman v. WHM Carib, LLC · filed 2016-03-14(a)

Plaintiffs — apparently by mistake — also brought an action for hostile work environment and retaliation under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which bars only discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, and national origin. ... The Court sua sponte dismisses the Title VII claims because "the material facts are crystal clear and no amendment of the complaint could possibly serve to alter the Court's disposition of Plaintiffs’ claims.”

Section 2000e-2(a) does not prohibit unequal treatment based on an employee’s academic discipline.

Robbins v. District of Columbia · filed 2016-06-10(a)

Second, Title VII prohibits discrimination based on “[an] individual’s race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.” 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-2(a)(1). Dai has disclaimed class-based discrimination, so Title VII would not be an appropriate ground for relief even if she had exhausted her administrative remedies.

Section 2000e-2(a) does not make criminal history a protected characteristic.

Cortes v. William Goittlieb Management Co. LLC · filed 2024-01-29(a)

First, Plaintiff’s criminal history is not a characteristic protected under Title VII, and therefore, Defendant’s alleged use of this history during Plaintiff’s application process does not violate Title VII.

Section 2000e-2(a)(1) requires facts supporting an inference that different treatment occurred because of a protected characteristic.

Giang v. DeJoy · filed 2024-02-01(a)(1)

But the Court agrees with Defendant that Plaintiff’s allegations do not give the Court any basis to infer that Plaintiff was treated differently because of her race, national origin, gender, or age.

Section 2000e-2 prohibits employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin, but does not cover disability.

Burnett v. BJ's Wholesale Club, Inc. · filed 2024-03-08(a)(1)

To the extent Plaintiff contends that his disability status brings him under the protection of Title VII, that argument is unavailing, as the statute by its plain terms does not cover disability.

Section 2000e-2(a)(1) protects against discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin, but does not cover disability.

Acosta v. Secretary, Department of Homeland Security · filed 2024-04-23(a)(1)

Title VII prohibits covered employers from engaging in certain acts and practices because of an individual’s race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-2. ... Title VII does not provide employment protections based on age or disability status.

Section 2000e-2(a)(1) requires a plaintiff to allege discrimination based on a protected characteristic.

Vasquez v. Washington Department of Veterans Affairs · filed 2024-08-22

Title VII’s anti-discrimination provision only proscribes discrimination on the basis of “ race, color, religion, sex, or national origin,” not disability, see 42 USCS § 2000e-2, and its anti-retaliation provision prohibits, in relevant part, retaliation against an employee for “oppos[ing] any practice made an unlawful employment practice by this subchapter,” 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-3(a).

Section 2000e-2(a)(1) does not protect against disability discrimination.

But Title VII only extends to claims based on “race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.” 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-2(a)(2). Title VII does not include workers’ compensation claims or other disability-type claims.

Watkins first alleges several Title VII violations against Defendants for discriminating against her based on “Age, Illness, Promotion, [and] Disparate treatment,” Dkt. 11 at 4, but none of these provide grounds for relief under Title VII. “Title VII prohibits discrimination based on an individual’s ‘race, color, religion, sex, or national origin,’ but not based on an individual’s age.” Mohmand v. Broad. Bd. of Governors, No. 17-cv-618, 2018 WL 4705800, at *3 (D.D.C. Sept. 30, 2018) (quoting 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-2(a)).

Title VII prohibits discrimination in employment on the basis of an individual’s race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-2. ... Plaintiff does not point to any allegations that he was discriminated against based on characteristics protected by Title VII or that his EEOC charge arguably included discrimination covered by Title VII; nor could he because both the Amended Complaint and the EEOC charge are void of any allegations that Plaintiff was discriminated against based on his race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.
