Gomez-Perez V. Potter, Postmaster General
Certiorari to the United States Court Of Appeals For
The First Circuit
Facts
Gomez-Perez was a 45 year old postal employee, who had filed a complaint under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967. She filed a petition alleging that her employer had violated 29 USC section 633 a (a) of the ADEA by retaliating against her for filing a complaint. The district court granted summary judgment to Potter, Postmaster General. When Gomez-Perez appealed to the First Circuit, the judgment of the District Court was affirmed.
Issue
Does Section 633a (a) prohibit retaliation against federal employee who complaints of age discrimination?
Ruling: The Supreme Court held that Section 633a (a) prohibits retaliation against federal employee who complaints of age discrimination.
Analysis
The reason why the Supreme Court decided in favor of Gomez-Perez was that there were prior decisions relating to retaliation that were covered by similar language in other antidiscrimination statutes. Under 42 USC Section 1983, all citizens shall have the same right as enjoyed by white citizens. In Jackson vs. Birmingham disallowed retaliation against public school employees. The court held that the language used in ADEA was similar to other discrimination statutes.
Minority Rationale(s)
The minority rationale is that the executive branch of the government has treated discrimination and retaliation separately and enacts administrative remedies for such retaliation, so to treat retaliation as discrimination is not acceptable. Similarly, a ban against discrimination based on protected status cannot be read to include a ban on retaliation.
Comments:
In an organization, if an administrative complaint is filed by an employee under the ADEA, there should not be any retaliatory action against her.
