Executive Summary
Amazon successfully obtained dismissal with prejudice of a pro se employment discrimination lawsuit (Title VII/ADA) filed by a former employee. The court adopted the magistrate's recommendation that the complaint was time-barred, as it was filed outside the 90-day window after the EEOC right-to-sue letter, and equitable tolling was not warranted. This is a routine procedural win for Amazon with no material financial or operational impact.
