Description

Vicky E. Jessie appeals from the district courts dismissal of her Title VII complaint alleging discrimination by her employer, the United States Postal Service, in connection with its response to her work-related injuries. The district court held that Jessies Title VII claim against a federal agency was barred by her failure to contact an Equal Employment Opportunity Counselor within forty-five days of the action of which she complains, see 29 C.F.R. § 1614.105(a)(1) (forty-five day requirement); Bailey v. United States Postal Serv., 208 F.3d 652, 654-55 (8th Cir. 2000) (failure to comply with requirement fatal to Title VII suit against federal agency). Jessie contends that the deadline was tolled because she was "physically and emotionally incapacitated," she was under the influence of prescription narcotics, and she was "unable to take care of herself." Because the record does not substantiate her claim of mental incapacitation, we affirm the district courts entry of judgment for the Postal Service.
