A private law firm brought this suit on behalf of the EEOC against Gaming Entertainment Delaware (doing business as Midway Slots and Simulcast) in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware in April 2002. The complaint is unavailable, but according to the 2002 EEOC General Counsel Report, it alleged national origin harassment in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The defendant allegedly required Asian employees to work longer hours than non-Asian counterparts and harassed Asian employees. The case settled by entry of a consent decree in May 2002. The details of the consent decree are unavailable, but the defendant was required to pay the complainants a total of $50,000.
