Court of Appeals for the First Circuit
Decided November 28, 2001No. 00-1988, 00-2102, 00-2196PublishedCited by 72 opinions
1Opinion of the Court
CYR, Senior Circuit Judge.
Plaintiff Gary Walton challenges various rulings which led the district court to dismiss his state-law claim for intentional infliction of emotional distress against his former employer, Nalco Chemical Company (Nalco), and to disallow his motion to amend the complaint to include a defamation claim under Maine law.
In its cross-appeal, Nalco challenges various evidentiary rulings, as well as the denial of its motion to dismiss Walton’s pendant state-law age-discrimination claim under the Maine Human Rights Act (“MHRA”). We affirm the district court judgment.
