Franklin Ohio Jury Instruction — 1.3.1 Civil Rights Act 42 USC Sect. 1981 Race Discrimination In Employment Discharge — Failure To Promote General Instruction is a detailed guideline provided to the jury in Franklin, Ohio, for cases involving allegations of race discrimination in employment discharge or failure to promote, based on the Civil Rights Act 42 USC Sect. 1981. This particular instruction assists the jury in understanding the legal framework and standards to be applied when determining whether an employer has engaged in race discrimination in regard to employee termination or failure to promote. It deals specifically with cases falling under the Civil Rights Act 42 USC Sect. 1981, which prohibits race discrimination in all aspects of employment. The general instruction outlines the key elements that need to be proven by the employee (plaintiff) in order to establish a prima facie case of race discrimination in employment discharge or failure to promote. These elements may include: 1. Protected Class Identification: The employee must demonstrate that they belong to a protected racial or ethnic minority group. 2. Qualifications: The employee must establish that they were qualified for the position in question or had met the necessary requirements for promotion. 3. Adverse Employment Action: The employee must prove that they suffered an adverse employment action, such as termination, failure to promote, or demotion. 4. Similarly, Situated Employees: The employee should show that other employees outside their protected class, who were similarly situated in terms of qualifications, were treated more favorably. 5. Causal Connection: The employee must establish a causal connection between their protected status and the adverse employment action, indicating that race or ethnicity played a significant role in the decision-making process. The instruction stresses that direct evidence of discriminatory intent is not always required to prove a claim of race discrimination. Circumstantial evidence, such as patterns of conduct, statements, or statistics, may be sufficient to infer unlawful discrimination.
