Before the decision, well below the 4.1% base rate, with no standout signals pointing toward a grant.
Question presented
The Petitioner presents issues herein that have a great impact upon public policy, that is the burden of proof necessary to allege sexual harassment, hostile work environment and wrongful termination based on race, nationality, disability, and color in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. §2000(e) et seq., more specifically when there is a series of bad acts. The lower courts misapplied the holding of Cruz v. Mattis, 861 F.3d 22 (ist Cir. 2017). WHETHER THIS COURT MUST APPLY STRICT SCRUTINY IN REVIEWING THE LOWER COURTS' DECISIONS AFTER DEVIATING FROM APPLICABLE CASE AND STATUTORY LAW AND DISMISSING A TITLE VII COMPLAINT AGAINST AN EMPLOYER AFTER THE PETITIONER PRESENTED A SERIES OF BAD ACTS CREATING A HOSTILE WORK ENVIRONMENT RESULTING IN HIS TERMINATION IN VIOLATION OF HIS CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS?
