1Opinion of the Court
KANNE, Circuit Judge.
Micaelina Ortiz sued John 0. Butler Company, alleging that Butler violated Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, 42 U.S.C. § 2000e et seq., by terminating her employment in retaliation for her making complaints regarding what she alleges were hostile and discriminatory working conditions. The district court granted summary judgment in favor of Butler on the ground that Ortiz’s claim was moot because, even if she prevailed, she would not be entitled to any damages. Ortiz appeals, and we affirm.
