Court: United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit Filed: 2026-07-28 The fourth-circuit affirmed the district court’s grant of summary judgment to Boeing Intelligence & Analytics, Inc., on Saira Ghumman’s race and color discrimination claims brought under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The court held that Ghumman forfeited her right to appellate review because her informal brief failed to challenge the basis for the district court’s disposition. Consequently, the Fourth Circuit limited its review to the issues preserved in the informal brief and found no grounds to reverse the lower court’s judgment. Oral argument was dispensed with as the facts and legal contentions were adequately presented in the written materials. Do It For The Case Law is a news reporting service.
