Case Summary

In September 2003, the EEOC filed this suit against North Central Supply, Inc. in the U.S. District Court for the District of South Dakota alleging discrimination on the basis of sex in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Specifically, the defendant terminated the charging party, a female employee, because she was pregnant. The charging party intervened in the suit in November 2003.

In September 2003, the EEOC filed this suit against North Central Supply, Inc. in the U.S. District Court for the District of South Dakota alleging discrimination on the basis of sex in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Specifically, the defendant terminated the charging party, a female employee, because she was pregnant. The charging party intervened in the suit in November 2003. After some discovery and scheduling orders, the EEOC and the defendant settled in September 2005 through a consent decree. The charging party and the defendant eventually settled their claims in April 2006.

The September 2005 consent decree contained non-discrimination and non-retaliation clauses and had a term of five years. Under the terms of the decree, the defendant agreed to: provide semi-annual reports to the EEOC, post a Title VII notice, adopt and distribute an anti-discrimination policy, and provide annual Title VII training for its supervisors and managers. The docket sheet does not show any further enforcement; the case was presumably closed in 2010.
