Chandra EVANS, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. WALGREEN COMPANY, Defendant-Appellee.
No. 12-6172
United States Court of Appeals, Sixth Circuit
April 2, 2014
508
BEFORE: BOGGS, NORRIS, and WHITE, Circuit Judges.
OPINION
PER CURIAM.
Plaintiff Chandra Evans filed suit against her former employer, the drugstore chain Walgreen Company, after she was terminated from her position as a pharmacist. She contends that, as an African-American woman, Walgreen discriminated against her based on her race and gender. She also alleges that Walgreen retaliated against her for speaking out about this discrimination. Her complaint included several state and federal causes of action.
The district court granted summary judgment to Walgreen in a detailed, published order. Evans v. Walgreen Co., 813 F.Supp.2d 897 (W.D.Tenn.2011). Evans appeals from that order as well as the denial of motions for sanctions and reconsideration. This case was extensively litigated below and the briefs on appeal are likewise detailed.
Evans also challenges the order overruling her objections to a magistrate judge‘s report recommending the denial of her motion for sanctions, a decision that we review for an abuse of discretion. See Hall v. Liberty Life Assur. Co. of Boston, 595 F.3d 270, 275 (6th Cir.2010). Among other things, Evans asked the court to exclude a written statement that she made in the course of the workplace-violence investigation. We find no abuse of discretion on the part of the court in denying her motion. We agree with the reasoning set forth in its order of August 15, 2011.
Lastly, we affirm the order of the district court denying Evans‘s motion for limited reconsideration filed on September 24, 2012.
The judgment of the district court is hereby affirmed.
