    Frederick H. BROWN, Plaintiff-Appellant v. BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS OF the PORT OF NEW ORLEANS, Defendant-Appellee.
    No. 13-31157
    Summary Calendar.
    United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.
    May 8, 2014.
    Frederick H. Brown, Harvey, LA, pro se.
    Maria Nan Alessandra, Esq., Kim Maria Boyle, Esq., Maryjo Lovie Roberts, Esq., Phelps Dunbar, L.L.P., Jeffery Mark Lynch, Port of New Orleans, New Orleans, LA, for Defendant-Appellee.
    Before HIGGINBOTHAM, DENNIS, and GRAVES, Circuit Judges.
   PER CURIAM:

Plaintiff Frederick H. Brown, proceeding pro se, timely appeals the district court’s dismissal of his Title VII retaliatory termination claim. Brown alleged that defendant Board of Commissions of the Port of New Orleans (“Port”) unlawfully terminated him in retaliation for his filing of EEOC complaints.

On defendant’s motion for summary judgment, the district court dismissed plaintiffs Title VII retaliation claim. The parties agreed that there was no direct evidence of retaliatory termination, and the district court analyzed the claim under the McDonnellr-Douglas burden shifting framework. Applying this framework, the district court held (i) that Brown failed to establish the prima facie case because he could not prove that a causal connection exists between his protected activity and his termination, and (ii) that Brown failed to offer any evidence that the Port’s given reason for his termination is pretextual.

On appeal, Brown argues that the district court erred in granting defendant’s motion for summary judgment. He argues that his termination was the direct result of his filing in EEOC complaint three years prior, and he argues that Faragher and Ellerth provide for strict liability.

On de novo review, we agree with the district court. There is no record evidence to establish that a “causal connection exists between the protected activity and the adverse employment action.” Moreover, Brown’s reliance on Faragher and Ellerth are misplaced; those cases apply to supervisor liability in Title VII harassment claims, not Title VII retaliation claims. Because Brown failed to establish the pri-ma facie case under the McDonnellr-Doug-las burden shifting framework, the district court correctly granted summary judgment to the Port.

We AFFIRM. 
      
       Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
     
      
      .By joint stipulation of the parties, all claims by plaintiff other than his claim of retaliatory termination under Title VII were dismissed with prejudice. R. 325.
