(The district court properly granted summary judgment to defendant employer on plaintiff’s Title VII claim that he was fired in retaliation for his aiding other employees. Plaintiff failed to raise a genuine issue that the employer’s stated non-retaliatory reason for firing him was pretextual. The mere fact that he was terminated 56 days after the last time he assisted another employee was insufficient. Other cases drawing an inference against the employer based on temporal proximity involved shorter time gaps. Also, here the employer’s stated reason for firing arose during the 56 day gap, further weakening any inference in the employee’s favor.)
