Wise was fired from her job at the Mead Corporation after she was involved in a fight
Question:
Wise was fired from her job at the Mead Corporation after she was involved in a fight with a coworker. On four other unrelated occasions, fights had occurred between male coworkers.
Only one of the males was fired, but this was after his second fight, in which he seriously injured another employee. There is no dispute that Wise was qualified and performed her duties adequately. Wise successfully established a prima facie case of discrimination. However, the defendant, Mead Corporation, met its burden to “articulate legitimate and nondiscriminatory reasons” for firing Wise. Can she prevail? Explain.
