Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit July 18, 1983, Nos. 81-7656, 81-8042 (Coker v. Amoco Oil Co.)

lead-opinion

JAMES C. HILL, Circuit Judge:

These consolidated cases arose from the termination of the employment relationship between Lewis Coker and Amoco Oil Company. In No. 81-7656, Coker brought an action in federal court on April 5, 1979 alleging that his July 22, 1978 termination violated the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA), 29 U.S.C. §§ 621-634 (1976).
