Sanchez v. Philip Morris Inc‪.‬

SETH, Circuit Judge. Appellee Raul C. Sanchez filed an action against Appellants Philip Morris, Inc. (""Philip Morris"") and Ralph Rayburn alleging reverse gender and national origin discrimination in violation of Title VII of the Federal Civil Rights Act, as well as violations of Oklahoma public policy. After dismissing the state public policy claim, the United States District Court for the Western District of Oklahoma found Appellants liable on both theories and awarded damages. Appellants appeal the imposition of liability, and Appellee cross-appeals the district court's dismissal of the public policy tort claim. Both parties appeal the damage award. Our jurisdiction over this appeal arises under 28 U.S.C. 1291. We reverse on the issue of liability and affirm the district court's dismissal of the public policy tort claim.
