No specific laws identified for this ruling.
The Ninth Circuit affirmed the district court's dismissal of Khorshed's employment claims for failure to state a plausible cause of action. The court held that Title VII and ADA do not impose liability on individual defendants, and Khorshed failed to allege sufficient facts to support his FLSA overtime claim or 'human rights' claim.
