Michael J. Hamm v. Weyauwega Milk Products, Inc.
Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit
1Opinion of the Court
WILLIAMS, Circuit Judge.
Michael Hamm alleges that he was sexually harassed at work by his male coworkers and was terminated as a result of his complaints about the harassment in violation of Title VII. The district court concluded that Hamm could not establish that he was discriminated against “because of’ sex as required by Title VII and granted summary judgment in favor of Hamm’s employer, Weyauwega Milk Products. Because we agree with the district court that Hamm’s evidence only supports work performance conflicts or speculation concerning his sexual orientation, we affirm.
