Description
The district court granted summary judgment for the defendant, Sears Roebuck, in this suit charging age discrimination in employment (29 U.S.C. §§ 621 et seq.), and dismissed the suit. 687 F. Supp. 388 (N.D.Ill. 1988). The plaintiff, Robert Palucki, had risen steadily through the ranks at Sears, where he had started working at the age of 16. By 1981, at the age of 40, he was the manager of the home-appliances division of a Sears store in Park Forest, a suburb of Chicago. That year, as part of a general reorganization of Sears's business, the management of the store created a new division which combined the jewelry, cosmetic, and shoe departments. Palucki was named manager of the new division. He was not happy with the move, because his managerial experience had been limited to "big ticket" items, such as furniture and appliances; managing "small ticket" items involves special problems, such as security (in the case of jewelry) and the supervision of part-time as well as full-time help. Palucki was not successful in his new job, and after a year he was fired and replaced by a man in his early thirties, precipitating this lawsuit.
