GILTY v. VILLAGE OF OAK PARK

No. 89-2764.

919 F.2d 1247 (1990)

Selester GILTY, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. VILLAGE OF OAK PARK, Defendant-Appellee.

United States Court of Appeals, Seventh Circuit.

Decided December 7, 1990.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Armand L. Andry, Oak Park, for plaintiff-appellant.

Richard A. Martens, Chicago, for defendant-appellee.

Before WOOD, Jr., CUDAHY, and RIPPLE, Circuit Judges.


HARLINGTON WOOD, Jr., Circuit Judge.

In 1985, Selester Gilty misrepresented his academic credentials in order to gain a promotion. Now, some years and several misrepresentations later, he alleges racial discrimination in his employer's failure to promote him and later decision to discharge him. But Gilty's claims collapse of their own weight, and we affirm the district court's grant of summary judgment in favor of his employer.
