Question:
1. Why did the court conclude that Krasner did not have a valid claim for “hostile environment” discrimination?
2. Suppose that a female employee had experienced the same type of treatment that Krasner had. Would the female employee succeed in a Title VII claim of gender-based discrimination? Why or why not?
Plaintiff David Krasner brings this action against his former employer, HSH Nord bank AG (“HSH”), and his supervisor while employed there, Roland Kiser, alleging [among other things] sexual discrimination in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Defendant HSH is an international commercial bank, headquartered in Germany, and has offices worldwide, including a branch in New York City.
