DYERSVILLE (AP) — A man who filed a lawsuit claiming he was fired from his job at a Dyersville McDonald’s because he was gay and has HIV has dropped the case.

Daniel Carver of Epworth dropped the lawsuit last week. Court records did not indicate whether a settlement was reached in the case, but an attorney for the restaurant’s owners say the case was satisfactorily resolved.

Carver worked at the restaurant between October 2007 and February 2008.

He claimed that he was not promoted, had his work hours reduced and was harassed after other employees learned he was gay and had HIV, the virus that causes AIDS.

In court documents, the restaurant’s owners, Glenn and Lois Karpinske, denied Carver’s claims of discrimination and said that he was fired because of poor work performance and excessive absenteeism.
