Kalamazoo County Road Commission, Petitioners v. Robert Deleon

Summary

Justice Alito dissents from the Supreme Court’s denial of a petition for certiorari, arguing that the Sixth Circuit erred in holding that a plaintiff’s transfer to a position he had applied for constitutes an adverse employment action under Title VII, the ADEA, and the Equal Protection Clause. He contends the transfer was voluntary, not materially adverse, and that the petition should be granted and summarily reversed.
