Cortezano v. Salin Bank & Tr. Co.

1 Citing brief

  1. Bustos-Contreras v. Ritter Chemical LLC et al

    Motion in limine . Oral Argument requested.

    Filed March 25, 2013

    Illegal aliens and tax payers are not protected classes under federal and state discrimination and retaliation claims. 42 U.S.C. §2000e; 42 U.S.C. §1981; see also Cortezano v. Salin Bank & Trust Co., 680 F.3d 936, 940 (7th Cir. 2012), quoting Espinoza v. Farah Mfg. Co., 414 U.S. 86, 94 S.Ct. 334 (1973) (“[N]othing in Title VII makes it illegal to discriminate on the basis of citizenship or alienage”). Many of the allegations in Plaintiff’s Complaint, even if true, accuse Defendants of discrimination based on the fact that he was an illegal alien, not discrimination based on Plaintiff’s national origin of Mexico.
