Rachel Mosby v. City of Byron, Georgia

Paid petition · United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit, No. 21-10377 · judgment April 18, 2022


Certiorari denied · November 7, 2022
Pre-decision estimate: 5% cert probability

Before the decision, modestly above the 4.1% base rate. The model weighted this up for a circuit split argued in the petition, an Eleventh Circuit decision below, and counsel who has filed here before, and down for a state or local-government respondent.

Question presented

(1) Must a trial court apply this Court’s holding in Fort Bend when a Title VII plaintiff timely argues that the defendant has waived its objection to a charge-filing requirement objection, and must the trial court ultimately decide whether the same has been waived before granting summary judgment because of the same?
