Plaintiff Ronnie Ceasar, an African-American, sued his former employer, Lamar University, alleging racial discrimination and retaliation under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

Lamar University moved for summary judgment, presenting evidence of legitimate, non-discriminatory reasons for its employment decisions, including differing job qualifications, Ceasar's performance record, and his failure to properly return from medical leave. The court found that Mr. Ceasar failed to establish a prima facie case for his discrimination and retaliation claims and offered no evidence to demonstrate that the University's reasons were pretextual.
