Description

This appeal challenges judgment entered in favor of the defendant in a title VII action that alleged retaliatory discharge from employment. Thomas Womack had worked in various positions since 1966 in the county sheriffs department and the state district prosecutors office. He was discharged from employment as a deputy sheriff in 1973, and filed a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, (EEOC), protesting the discharge. In February 1975 he was hired as an investigator by the state prosecutor, Lee Munson. In June 1975 Womack filed a class action suit against the sheriff based upon the allegations contained in his EEOC charge. Shortly thereafter Munson questioned Womack about the lawsuit and suspended him; an investigation followed, and Womack was discharged 20 days later.
