Question: Fifty-four-year-old Bennington worked for Caterpillar, Inc. After a series of management changes and actions that Bennington claims made him feel undermined, he retired and filed an age discrimination suit against Caterpillar. The individual who took over Bennington's responsibilities was only five years younger than he was at the time. Is this sufficient to show that they treated this individual more favorably as evidence of age discrimination? [ Bennington v. Caterpillar, 275 F.3d 654 (7th Cir. 2001).]
