ORDER GRANTING SUMMARY JUDGMENT

ERNEST TORRES, Chief Judge

For the reasons stated in the magistrate judge's very comprehensive and well-reasoned Report and Recommendation ("R R"), defendant Core, Inc.'s motion for summary judgment is hereby granted; and the claims against defendant A, B and C are hereby dismissed.

In addition, defendant Fairfield Resorts, Inc.'s motion for summary judgment is granted for the following reasons:

1. With respect to those claims other than the claims set forth in counts 1, 2, 4 and 5, the motion is granted for the reasons stated in the R R.

2. With respect to the claims for discriminatory "demotion" the motion is granted because the plaintiff has failed to present any evidence that:

(a) An adverse employment action was taken against her inasmuch as she never returned to work after being told that, following her scheduled vacation, she would be relieved of her managerial duties;

(b) Being relieved of her managerial duties involved any change in her working conditions, salary or other terms of employment;

(c) She sustained any damage or loss as a result of the prospect that she would be relieved of her managerial duties upon returning to her employment.
