The court dismissed all of plaintiff's claims without prejudice under the Fifth Circuit's claim-splitting doctrine, finding that plaintiff improperly filed a second lawsuit with Title VII claims after failing to amend her first lawsuit (which contained only §1981 claims) before the EEOC 90-day deadline expired.

The trial court did not err by entering summary judgment for Appellee on Appellant's claim for workers' compensation benefits. Generally, the coming-and-going rule bars compensation of a fixed-situs employee for injuries which occur off the work premises. Neither the zone-of-employment exception or the totality-of-the-circumstances exception applies. Judgment affirmed.
