I’ll take Supreme Court Justices on retaliation for $500, Alex.

Yesterday, the Supreme Court heard oral argument in University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center v. Nassar. In this case, the Court is being asked to determine what a plaintiff’s burden of proof is for a Title VII retaliation claim.

Is it mixed motive? In other words, is it enough that retaliation motivates an adverse employment action?

Or does a plaintiff have to prove that retaliation was the reason that adverse employment action was taken?

You can find a copy of the transcript from yesterday’s oral argument here.

But before you pour through it, let’s see how well you know your Supreme Court Justices.

Take the quiz and see if you can tell who said what during oral argument.
