Description
Appellant, Deborah Lynn Thorne, appeals from the district court's dismissal of her claim against defendants Devilbiss, Johnson, and Hampton under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 for invasion of constitutionally protected privacy and associational interests, and from the court's adverse judgment, following a bench trial, on her sex discrimination claim against the City of El Segundo under Title VII, 42 U.S.C. § 2000e et seq. The district court dismissed the section 1983 claim under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b) at the end of Thorne's case, on the ground that the evidence showed no right to relief. The court rejected the Title VII claim after trial on the grounds that Thorne had failed to establish a prima facie case of disparate treatment, and that, in any event, the City had demonstrated legitimate justification for its refusal to hire her. Thorne filed a timely appeal from the district court's judgment and jurisdiction in this court is proper under 28 U.S.C. § 1291 (1976). We reverse both the district court's dismissal of appellant's section 1983 claim and the judgment on her Title VII claim.
