Laurie, a lesbian and French national, was hired as a flight attendant to work in United Airlines

Question:

Laurie, a lesbian and French national, was hired as a flight attendant to work in United Airlines’ hub in Paris. Laurie was terminated at age 40. She sues United Airlines alleging employment discrimination on the basis of age, gender, and affinity orientation (the latter based on the Illinois Human Rights Act). The airline asks the court to dismiss Laurie’s action on the basis that she does not live in the U.S., so the employment protection laws do not apply to her. Will the court do so? Explain. [Rabé v. United Airlines, Inc. 2011 WL677946 (7th Cir. 2011).]
