Description

Arlene Horner, a female teacher, appeals from a judgment in favor of Mary Institute, her private school employer. Horner sued Mary Institute under the Equal Pay Act of 1963, 29 U.S.C. Â§ 206(d)(1), for back pay, liquidated damages, and compensation for reasonable attorneys fees and costs. The district court, after receiving testimony, exhibits, and the briefs of both parties, entered judgment for Mary Institute. The court held that Horner had failed to establish a prima facie case that Mary Institute had violated the Act by discriminating in payment of wages on the basis of sex. The court further held that any prima facie showing had been rebutted.
