United States Sixth Circuit

Summary judgment to defendant affirmed where since plaintiff failed to file a rule 56(f) affidavit, the district court did not abuse its discretion in staying discovery, the court properly determined that plaintiff failed to establish a prima facie case of gender discrimination, and defendant does not satisfy the statutory definition of an employer.
