Rudolph STECKL, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. MOTOROLA, INC., Defendant-Appellee

Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit

Decided April 4, 1983No. 82-5524PublishedCited by 241 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

POOLE, Circuit Judge:

Rudolph Steckl appeals the district court’s order granting summary judgment in favor of his employer, Motorola, in Steckl’s action under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, 29 U.S.C. § 621 et seq. (the ADEA). Steckl contends that the order is improper because the company’s explanation for denying him a promotion was a pretext for age discrimination rather than a legitimate business reason. He also argues summary judgment is inappropriate because it was his intention to prove pretext by attacking the motivation and intent of Motorola’s witnesses on cross-examination.
