In April 2005, the Indianapolis District Office of the EEOC brought this suit against Figgaziga, Inc., d/b/a Brown County IGA, in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Indiana alleging discrimination on the basis of sex in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Specifically, the complaint alleged that the defendant subjected the charging party, a female employee, and a class of similarly situated female employees to sexual harassment. The charging party intervened in the suit in June 2005. After some scheduling orders and discovery, the parties participated in a settlement conference in December 2005. About a week following the conference, the parties settled through a consent decree.
The two-year decree, containing non-discrimination and non-retaliation clauses, required the defendant to: post a non-discrimination notice, distribute its EEO policies, provide sex discrimination training for all its employees, report to the EEOC at specified intervals, and pay $46,000 to be distributed among four individuals.
The decree was entered in 2005 and scheduled to last until 2007. No further docket entries exist, so the case is closed.
