                     Appeal from the United States District Court
                              for the District of Arizona
                     James A. Teilborg, District Judge, Presiding

                        Argued and Submitted October 8, 2009
                              San Francisco, California

Before:       RYMER and TASHIMA, Circuit Judges, and LEIGHTON,**

        The Honorable Ronald B. Leighton, United States District Judge for the
       **
Western District of Washington, sitting by designation.
Phoenix. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm. We

review a district court’s grant of summary judgment de novo. Head v. Glacier, 413

F.3d 1053, 1058 (9th Cir. 2005).

      The district court properly concluded that Ms. Novak-Scott failed to

establish a prima facie case of retaliation. She did not suffer the type of significant

harm that would dissuade a reasonable worker from making or supporting a charge

of discrimination. Burlington N. & Santa Fe Ry. Co. v. White, 548 U.S. 53, 60

(2006). Accordingly, for the reasons stated by the district court, summary

judgment was properly granted for the City of Phoenix.

      AFFIRMED.
