United States Third Circuit
Rea v. Federated Investors, 10-1440
In plaintiff's suit claiming that defendant violated 11 U.S.C. section 525(b) for refusing to hire him because he had previously declared bankruptcy, district court's grant of defendant's motion to dismiss for failure to state a claim is affirmed as the district court properly declined plaintiff's request to read the phrase "discrimination with respect to employment" in section 525(b) as broad enough to encompass discrimination in the denial of employment.
