That conference, at which the parties reached an agreement, occurred on July 18, 2003. On August 28, 2003 the consent decree was filed with the court. It was entered by the court on September 2, 2003. The defendant agreed to pay the complainant $149,999 . Beyond monetary relief, the defendant agreed to very little in the consent decree. The only injunctive relief in the decree was an agreement to provide the complainant a reference letter and not to challenge his bid for unemployment benefits.
