Crawford, et al v. US Bancorp
EE-CA-309
On May 08, 2000, a female employee of US Bancorp filed a job discrimination lawsuit under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, 42 U.S.C. § 2000e et. seq., the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, and Article I, § 8 of the California Constitution against US Bancorp Piper Jaffray ("Piper") in the in the United States District Court of the Northern District of California.
The title case is a combination of three like cases. The three plaintiffs, all represented by private counsel, similarly asked the court for injunctive, declaratory relief, and damages, alleging that defendant Piper perpetually discriminated against female employees with respect to hiring, job assignment, compensation, promotion, and other terms and conditions of employment.
While the initial complaint was filed on May 5, 2000, the court (Judge Phyllis J. Hamilton) dismissed the case without prejudice on February 2, 2001. However, on February 21, 2001, an administrative docket modification indicates that the case was reopened, dismissing the original title plaintiff from the case.
According to the Pacer docket, the First Amended Complaint was then filed on July 23, 2001. The plaintiffs then filed a motion to certify a class action on July 25, 2001. On September 13, 2001, the court (Judge Hamilton) denied the motion to certify the class.
On May 22, 2001, the defendant filed two motions for summary judgment, one for each of the remaining plaintiffs in the case. As no class certification was granted, the plaintiffs were dealt with individually. On October 1, 2002, the court (Judge Hamilton) issued responses to the defendant's motions for summary judgment, granting and denying motions for summary judgment for individual plaintiffs.
On May 6, 2003, the court received joint stipulation of dismissal with prejudice and proposed order from the remaining plaintiffs and the defendant. The following day, the court (Judge Hamilton) approved the order dismissing the remaining action with prejudice, officially closing the case.
