    No. 17-1110
    United States Court of Appeals, Eighth Circuit.
    Submitted: November 16, 2017
    Filed: December 6, 2017
    Lateshia Patillo, Pro Se
    Dennis P. Duffy, Baker & Hostetler, Houston, TX, John T. Holleman, Holleman & Associates, P.A., Little Rock, AR, for Defendant-Appellee
    Jeremy D. Horowitz, Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, Office of General Counsel, Washington, DC, for Equal Employment Opportunity Commission Amicus on Behalf of Appellant(s)
    Before SHEPHERD, MURPHY, and KELLY, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM.

Lateshia Patillo appeals the district court’s order dismissing her employment-discrimination action, for failure to exhaust administrative remedies. Upon de novo review, see Blakley v. Schlumberger Tech. Corp., 648 F.3d 921, 931 (8th Cir. 2011), we vacate the dismissal order and remand the case to the district court. The court is instructed to reconsider the issues in this case, including whether an intake questionnaire Patillo filed with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission constituted a valid administrative charge of discrimination, in light of Supreme Court precedent including Fed. Express Corp. v. Holowecki, 552 U.S. 389, 128 S.Ct. 1147, 170 L.Ed.2d 10 (2008), and Edelman v. Lynchburg Coll., 535 U.S. 106, 122 S.Ct. 1145, 152 L.Ed.2d 188 (2002).
