Description

Following Ellie Grizzles ("Grizzle") termination from her employment by Travelers Health Network, Inc. ("Travelers") her former employer, she brought suit against it in the district court, alleging age discrimination, retaliatory discharge for complaining of age discrimination pursuant to the Age Discrimination in Employment Act ("ADEA"), and intentional infliction of emotional distress ("IIED") pursuant to Texas law. The jury trial on Grizzles claims lasted approximately two days, and on September 9, 1991, the jury returned a verdict in favor of Travelers on the age discrimination and IIED claims, but found for Grizzle on the retaliation claim, finding Travelers conduct was "willful." On September 19, 1990, the district court granted Travelers motion for judgment notwithstanding the verdict on the retaliation claim, and final judgment was thus entered in favor of Travelers on the entire action dismissing all of Grizzles claims against it.
