In a 5-4 decision, the US Supreme Court has changed the burden of proof in age discrimination law suits. Whereas the burden used to fall on the employer, the employee now has to prove discrimination.

This will make age discrimination cases more difficult because employees will be hard pressed to find hard proof of the reasons for their employers' decisions.
