Missouri Court of Appeals, Eastern District / Nov 17, 2020
Vanessa Ickenroth, Appellant, vs. Parkway School District C-2, Respondent.
Vanessa Ickenroth appealed the trial court's grant of summary judgment for Parkway School District C-2 on her age discrimination claim under the Missouri Human Rights Act. She also challenged the assessment of court costs against her. The appellate court affirmed the summary judgment on the age discrimination claim, finding no genuine issues of material fact. However, the court reversed the assessment of costs, concluding the trial court erred by not finding her claim was without foundation, and modified the judgment accordingly.
