MEMORANDUM DECISION
GWIN, District Judge.
On November 3, 1997, defendant Hess & Clark, Inc. filed a motion for summary judgment in this age discrimination in employment case [Doc. 17]. The defendant says Plaintiff Frederick Godfredson cannot make out a prima facie ease of age discrimination. The defendant says it discharged Godfredson as part of a reduction in force and because the company’s pet food line was failing. The defendant also argues that there is no genuine issue regarding Godfredson’s state law causes of action.
For the reasons that follow, the Court grants judgment to the defendant.
