: New York Public Personnel Law2nd Circuit Holds Sexual Orientation Discrimination Is Not Actionable Under Title VII

Kiley v. ASPCA, ___F.3d___(2d Cir. Oct. 2, 2008), is a short decision which reviews several fundamental Title VII principles. The court holds that discrimination on account of sexual orientation is not actionable.
Additionally, the court recognizes a cause of action may be viable as sexual stereotyping, but that a plaintiff cannot bootstrap a sexual orientation case as a stereotyping case.
Unfortunately, the court does not provide much guidance with respect to how courts should distinguish between these two claims.
