Eighth Circuit -- Relenthis Blakley v. Schlumberger Technology Corp.

Relenthis Blakley v. Schlumberger Technology Corp.

Award of costs need not be on motion, just a schedule of costs - authorities cited by deft refer to fees, which are different.

12(b) motion granted for not exhausting administrative remedies was not error, as there was sufficient evidence in the public record.

12(b) dismissal as duplicative not erroneous.

Adding a new statutory c/a not kosher after being given leave to amend initial claim.

Summary judgment on Title VII and FMLA was correct.
