Workplace Prof Blog:  “In plaintiff’s race, employment discrimination lawsuit against United Airlines, trial court’s grant of summary judgment in favor of defendants is reversed as to eight causes of actions as they must be decided by the jury. Furthermore, the trial court’s order sustaining 763 of 764 of defendant’s objections was a manifest abuse of discretion. . . . Five thousand, four hundred, fifteen pages of material were before the trial court . . . . While not reading the papers cannot be condoned, it can perhaps be understood, as we hesitate to speculate how long it would take a trial court to meaningfully digest over 2200 pages of separate statements, analyze and rule on 764 objections set out in 325 pages, review it all in light of the applicable law, and then write a proper order.”
