## Opinion text

COX, Circuit Judge, specially
concurring:
I do not join Judge Tjoflat’s opinion. But I agree that the evidence is sufficient to create genuine issues of material fact on Wright’s discharge claim and on Wright’s retaliation claim. I therefore concur in the judgment vacating the entry of summary judgment on these claims and remanding for further proceedings.
