Facts

The plaintiff was an African-American architectural designer for the Los Angeles Unified School
District. He had applied for several promotions. After the school district had promoted several
individuals, the plaintiff filed a series of EEOC and DFEH charges and later claimed that he
suffered retaliation as a result of those charges. However, the plaintiff did not have any direct
evidence that LAUSD discriminated or retaliated against him when it hired an Asian and an
African-American with specialized skills for open architectural associate positions. There was
also no discrimination or retaliation in the work directives or assignments LAUSD made to the
plaintiff over the years or during the job reclassification process.
