Description
This appeal raises a number of employment law issues relating to the recruitment, hiring and later firing of appellant, Susan Farrell. The District Court granted summary judgment in favor of defendants Planters Lifesavers Company and Nabisco, Inc., on all of Farrell's claims.*fn1 See Farrell v. Planters Lifesavers Co., 22 F. Supp. 2d 372 (D.N.J. 1998). Farrell appeals the dismissal of her retaliation and quid pro quo sexual harassment claims under Title VII and the dismissal of her North Carolina contract law claim.*fn2 Acting as Amicus Curiae, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission supports Farrell's appeal from the dismissal of her federal claims. Wefind that Farrell established a prima facie case for both federal causes of action, and we will reverse the grant of summary judgment precluding her retaliation and quid pro quo claims. We will, however, affirm the dismissal of her state contract law claim. We have jurisdiction over this appeal pursuant to 28 U.S.C. S 1291. The District Court had jurisdiction over the Title VII claims under 28 U.S.C. S 1331, and exercised jurisdiction over the state law claim under 28 U.S.C. S 1332. Viewing the record from Farrell's perspective, the facts in this case are as follows.
