The Court granted the defendant's motion to dismiss, finding that the state was immune from suit under the Eleventh Amendment for most claims, and the Title VII claim was dismissed due to the plaintiff's failure to exhaust administrative remedies by not including race or retaliation in her initial EEOC charge, which only alleged age discrimination.
