Description
Dean A. Matthews appeals from the district court's1 grant of summary judgment along with an award of costs to his former employer, Allis-Chalmers. Matthews had brought suit against Allis-Chalmers alleging that the company had violated the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA), 29 U.S.C. §Â§ 621-634 (1982), in terminating him in 1982. The district court held that Matthews had failed to establish a prima facie case of age discrimination. We affirm the district court's grant of summary judgment. I. Facts Allis-Chalmers hired Matthews as a designer in 1957. During his employment with Allis-Chalmers Matthews held the titles of chief engineer, project engineer, and product engineer, and was always on salary. On two occasions, in February 1975 and October 1981, Matthews was demoted from chief engineer positions to product engineer.
