Outcome

The court remanded the case to state court because removal was improper, finding that plaintiff's complaint did not affirmatively allege a federal claim on its face, even though plaintiff had filed an EEOC charge and received a right-to-sue letter. The discrimination claim could be brought under Colorado state law.
