Defendants.

The following Minute Order is made by direction of the Court, the Honorable
13 Thomas S. Zilly, United States District Judge:
(1)
Defendants’ motion for summary judgment, docket no. 99, is DENIED.
The Court is persuaded that genuine disputes of material fact exist concerning whether
15 plaintiff resigned or was fired or constructively discharged, whether plaintiff’s separation
from Saturna Capital Corporation was causally related to any protected activities, and
16 whether any after-acquired evidence might affect plaintiff’s damages. Such disputes
preclude summary judgment. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(a).
