Igor MOISEEFF, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. DAIMLERCHRYSLER CORPORATION, Defendant-Appellee, 123 F. App'x 235

OPINION PER CURIAM. Plaintiff-Appellant Igor Moiseeff appeals the district court’s grant of

summary judgment to Defendant-Appellee Daimler-Chrysler Corporation in this case brought pursuant to the Family Medical Leave Act (“FMLA”). 29 U.S.C. § 2601 et seq. The district court found that Moiseeff did not establish a prima, facie case of retaliation under the FMLA because he failed to show a causal connection between his FMLA-protected leave and his discharge. In the alternative, the court found that Moiseeff failed to show that Daimler-Chrysler’s legitimate, non-discriminatory reason for discharge was pretextual. This Court reviews a district court’s grant of

summary judgment de novo. McKay v. Toyota Motor Mfg., USA, Inc., 110 F.3d 369, 372 (6th Cir.1997). We have reviewed the record and the parties’ submissions. For substantially the same reasons set forth in the district court’s comprehensive opinion dated November 21, 2003, we AFFIRM the grant of

summary judgment.
