Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Ronald G. Hole, McAllen, Ralph L. Halpern, Linda H. Joseph, Jaeckle, Fleischmann & Mugel, Buffalo, for appellant.

Aaron Pena, Jr., Edinburg, for appellee.

Before SEERDEN, C.J., and DORSEY and HINOJOSA, JJ.


OPINION

DORSEY, Justice.

Trico Technologies appeals from a judgment assessing damages of $9,000 and attorney's fees totalling $45,000 in favor of Carlos Rodriguez, its former employee. Rodriguez sued Trico claiming that he had been discriminated against during a reduction-in-force on the basis of his age. Rodriguez was laid off in October 1992 at age sixty-one. We reverse and remand because the burden of proof was misplaced in the charge.
