No. 16-20533
violation of Title VII. She also asserted a wrongful discharge claim under
ERISA.
In its lengthy and exhaustive opinion and order granting South Central’s
motion for summary judgment of dismissal, the district court patiently detailed
the facts and law applicable to Francis’s claims, explaining the reasons why
her action could not survive South Central’s summary judgment motion. We
have carefully considered that opinion in light of the record on appeal,
including the parties’ briefs and record excerpts, and we conclude that the
district court’s judgment is not only free of error but imminently correct in all
respects. For us to write further would add nothing. We therefore affirm the
district court’s Final Judgment of April 25, 2016 for the reasons expressed in
that court’s Memorandum Opinion and Order of even date.
AFFIRMED.
