Barricks v. Eli Lilly and Co‪.‬

Alone among the thirty or so employees in her department, Lena Barricks did not receive a raise in 2003. Barricks, who had worked as a chemical operator at Eli Lilly and Company ("Lilly") since 1977, thought that discrimination was behind this, so after retiring in 2004 she sued her former employer for age and gender discrimination. The district court granted summary judgment to Lilly and Barricks appeals. Because Barricks cannot show that Lillys stated reason for declining to give the raise-her performance-is a pretext for discrimination, we affirm the judgment of the district court.
