A federal judge has issued a mixed ruling on a lawsuit filed by a former ESPN associate producer who claimed the sports network discriminated against her because she is a woman and retaliated against her for taking advantage of the federal Family and Medical Leave Act.

In his ruling handed down Tuesday, U.S. District Judge Michael Shea of Connecticut dismissed most of the claims leveled by Rachel Pineda in a February lawsuit. The judge dismissed her FMLA claim and her Title VII claim related to sex discrimination, the Rehabilitation Act and the Americans With Disabilities Act. Shea said Pineda’s claim for discrimination based on race, color and national origin may proceed.
