Gill v. City and County of San Francisco CA1/2
Byron Gill, an African-American, began employment with the City and County of San Francisco (City) in 1996, working as a gardener. In 2013, Gill sought a promotion to district captain, without success, and then filed a complaint with the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing (DFEH). And in 2015, while still employed by the City, Gill filed a complaint against it, alleging race discrimination and retaliation, essentially arguing, as his brief puts it, that after his DFEH complaint “the City found fault with almost everything he did on the job, suspended him for minor rule violations not enforced against other workers, passed him over for promotion, and even refused to allow him to transfer away from the supervisors who were making his work life miserable.”
The City brought a motion for summary judgment or, in the alternative, summary adjudication.
