Pre-decision estimate: 0% cert probability

Before the decision, well below the 4.1% base rate, with no standout signals pointing toward a grant.

Questions presented

  1. Whether evidence of Harassment and Discrimination, as documented by Petitioner in numerous complaints that were acknowledged by Ford Motor Company and its Labor Relations is inadmissible hearsay that warrants a grant of summary judgment?

  2. Does dismissing claims of hostile work environment, sexual harassment, and gender discrimination without considering evidence presented constitute an erroneous ruling by the district court?

  3. Whether the district court abused its discretion for dismissing claims of racial discrimination, racial harassment, and retaliation for engaging in first amendment protected activity without analyzing evidence presented by appellant?
