Employment Litigators David Wilk and Angela Brandt successful in dismissal of Minnesota Human Rights Act claims

By Order dated May 14, 2014, United States District Court Judge Patrick J. Schiltz granted Nash Finch Company’s motion to dismiss claims under the Minnesota Human Rights Act.  Larson King employment litigators David Wilk and Angela Brandt filed the motion arguing that plaintiff’s claims under the Minnesota Human Rights Act should be dismissed because, under the Minnesota Supreme Court’s decision in State by Beaulieu v. RSJ, Inc., “probable cause determinations made 31 or more months after a charge is filed are per se prejudicial to the respondent and require dismissal of the complaint.” A copy of Judge Schiltz’s Order appears here.
