Lisa LOTT, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. ORIANA HOUSE, INC., DefendantAppellee, 340 F. App'x 305

PER CURIAM. Plaintiff-Appellant Lisa Lott (“Lott”) appeals the district court’s grant of

summary judgment in favor of Defendant-Ap-pellee Oriana House, Inc. (“Defendant”) on her claims alleging gender and race-based discrimination in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e et seq., and breach of implied contract of employment under Ohio law. In a well-reasoned opinion, the district court concluded that Defendant was entitled to

summary judgment with respect to Lott’s discrimination claims because

(1) Defendant provided a legitimate, nondiscriminatory reason for discharging Lott, namely, her failure to adequately maintain client files and her falsification of records; and

(2) Lott could not show that Defendant’s reason was pretextual. Lott v. Oriana House, Inc., No. 3:07CV1084, 2008 WL 3889983, 2008 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 64383, at *8-14 (N.D.Ohio Aug.19, 2008). The court also concluded that Defendant was entitled to

summary judgment on Lott’s implied contract claim because, in light of documents establishing that Lott’s employment was at-will, there was no genuine issue of material fact as to whether Lott and Defendant entered into an implied contract of employment. Id., at *14-16. After carefully considering the record, the parties’ briefs, and the parties’ oral arguments, we agree that

summary judgment was properly granted with respect to all claims. We conclude that a panel opinion further addressing the issues raised would not serve a jurisprudential purpose, and we therefore AFFIRM for the reasons set forth by the district court.
