What is the burden of proving that an employer has a legitimate, nondiscriminatory reason?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Vivanco v. Cedars-Sinai Med. Ctr., B298577 (Cal. App. 2020):

for a legitimate, nondiscriminatory reason. If the employer discharges this burden, . . . [t]he plaintiff must then show that the employer's proffered nondiscriminatory reason was actually a pretext for discrimination, and the plaintiff may offer any other evidence of discriminatory motive." (Harris v. City of Santa Monica (2013) 56 Cal.4th 203, 214-215.)
