Emanuel Matthews v. Harley Davidson

Summary

The Court held that the petition sufficiently pleaded hostile work environment and aiding-and-abetting claims under the Missouri Human Rights Act. Accepting the pleaded facts as true and construing them liberally, the alleged nooses, racist graffiti, racial threats, segregation, and management responses could establish the required elements of those claims. The Court vacated the dismissal of all three claims and remanded for further proceedings.
