OPINION

Plaintiff filed this lawsuit asserting employmentdiscrimination claims under Title VII of the Civil Rights

Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. §§ 1981a, 2000e through 2000e-17.

This lawsuit is now before the court on the

recommendation of the United States Magistrate Judge that

defendants’ motion for summary be granted. Also before

the court are plaintiff’s objections to the

recommendation. After an independent and de novo review

of the record, the court concludes that plaintiff’s

Case 2:03-cv-01233-MHT-SRW Document 121 Filed 03/15/06 Page 1 of 2
objections should be overruled and the magistrate judge’s

recommendation adopted.

The court also adds these comments. For the same

reason that plaintiff has failed to show, in support of

a prima-facie case, that similarly situated women were

treated differently from him, he has also failed to

establish (even assuming that a prima-facie case could be

shown) that the reasons given for his termination and the

denial of changed positions were pretextual.

An appropriate judgment will be entered.

DONE, this the 15th day of March, 2006.
