U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit
Folasade Loye v. Emory University
August 31, 2026
Summary
The Eleventh Circuit affirmed summary judgment for Emory University on Loye's age-discrimination and retaliation claims under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act. Loye waived appellate challenges by failing to object to the magistrate judge's report and by not invoking the narrow civil plain-error exception; even if reviewed for plain error, the record did not establish discriminatory or retaliatory pretext. No separate opinions were issued.
