Google and Legal Research
Price Waterhouse v. Hopkins Desert Palace, Inc. v. Costa Mt. Healthy City School District Board of Education v. Doyle NLRB v. Transportation Management Corp. and Rachid v. Jack in the Box, Inc.Although that's not a very sophisticated search term, the first four cases are the key Supreme Cases in determining the history of "mixed motive." I would have thought Gross would have shown up high but it doesn't appear until the 8th page. Interestingly, the Rachid case is a 5th Circuit case which extended mixed motive to the ADEA without a lot of discussion, and has been sub silentio overruled on that point by Gross. I doubt that many are canceling their Westlaw or Lexis accounts today, but it is an interesting development.
