Deborah Jaime v. American Water Heater Company

The plaintiff brought this action against her former employer, alleging that the defendant terminated her employment in retaliation for her pursuit of a claim for workers' compensation benefits. The trial court granted the defendant summary judgment, holding that the plaintiff failed to establish a prima facie case of retaliatory discharge and that she also failed to rebut the defendant's proffered legitimate reason for termination. The plaintiff appeals. We affirm.
