Written especially for the EEOC practitioner, Effective Summary Judgment Motions combines the knowledge and experience of a longtime advocate, Ernest Hadley, and a former EEOC administrative judge, Eleanor Laws. Whether you are preparing or opposing a motion for summary judgment, this book is a step-by-step guide on effective summary judgment motion practice.
Beginning with the rules and legal standards that govern summary judgment and moving to the form and content of the written pleadings, this book focuses on bringing the theoretical into the litigator’s daily practice by demonstrating how those rules and standards apply to intentional discrimination, hostile environment harassment, reasonable accommodation, and reprisal cases.
The authors thoroughly discuss the EEOC’s case law interpreting summary judgment standards, and note common themes and trends to help the reader determine when summary judgment motions are more likely to be successful. Sample motions and practice tips supplement a text that is designed to teach the practitioner how to effectively use summary judgment as an offensive and defensive litigation tool.
