Description
Lowes Home Centers, Inc. terminated Robert Green on the basis that he harassed several co-workers in violation of its sexual harassment policy. Green sued Lowes, contending that it had, in fact, fired him in retaliation for his filing of a workers compensation claim. The trial court granted summary judgment in favor of Lowes. Green appeals, contending fact issues exist as to (1) whether he has established a prima facie case of retaliation by showing a causal link between his termination and his workers compensation claim, (2) whether Lowes purported reason for terminating Green--that he committed sexual harassment in the workplace--was a pretext for a retaliatory purpose, and (3) whether Green is entitled to punitive damages. We agree with the trial court that Green has failed to raise a fact issue as to the causal link between his termination and workers compensation claim and therefore affirm.
