Lonnie Kimbro v. Pepsico, Inc.
Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit
1Opinion of the Court
POSNER, Chief Judge.
Lonnie Kimbro sued his former employer, Frito-Lay, for having violated the federal age discrimination law by firing him, allegedly on account of his being over 40. He joined with this claim a supplemental claim under state law against two of his supervisors at Frito-Lay, plus Super Valu, Inc., doing business under the name of Shop ’N Save, and a Shop ’N Save store manager named Ansell, for tortious interference with his employment contract with Frito-Lay. (Other defendants have fallen by the wayside.) The district court granted summary judgment for the defendants.
