The EEOC's Cleveland office filed this suit December 5, 1997 against Invacare Corporation in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio, Cleveland division. The EEOC alleged disparate treatment by Invacare of a black female employee in violation of Title VII. The case was referred to mediation early but no agreement was reached. The defendant did submit a motion for summary judgment, but no decision was ever recorded regarding that motion. The case went to trial December 9, 1998. The jury reached a verdict for the defendant December 16, 1998. The only document publicly available for this case was the docket.
