have such skills. The EEOC presented evidence that Larson was told to pass more of his work to Lynn. In 2003, there was no employee named Lynn in the IT department.
Defendants argue that even if Larson took over Derengowski's duties, the age difference between them is only four years, which is insufficient to create an inference of age discrimination. Regardless, the EEOC has presented sufficient evidence to create a genuine issue of fact of whether Derengowski's skills and position was still necessary, whether she was replaced by Larson and Lynn, and whether Lynn is younger than Derengowski.
With respect to Lucido, the EEOC presented evidence that approximately one year after Lucido was terminated, Eric Stewart became IT manager. Defendants argue that although it is true that Stewart became ahe had created. In addition, Defendants have not provided a reason for selecting Stockton in particular for lay off.
For these reasons, the summary judgment motion is GRANTED with respect to Gittus, and DENIED with respect to Derengowski, Stockton and Lucido.
