Case Summary

The Boston office of the EEOC brought this suit against American-Republican Inc. in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut in August 1999. We do not have a copy of the complaint or any other case materials other than the docket, so the nature of the allegations is unknown. This case was consolidated with a case brought by a private plaintiff in October 1999, 99-cv-01582, which was designated the lead case. The parties entered a consent decree in August 2003. From the docket, we know the defendant agreed to pay three claimants a total of $75,000 and agreed to pay $30,000 in attorney fees.
