Question Presented (from Petition)

Did the District Court's and the Court of Appeals' failure to address James' allegations (i.e. forgeries and fabricated documents, denial of motions, failure to submit requested copies, failure to submit video evidence, etc.), allow Southland to escape from proving a non-discriminatory reason for its actions and be granted summary judgment; thus, denying James a fair trial and reasonable opportunity for rebuttal?
