Complainants alleged that the defendant subjected them to discrimination based on their sex and sexual harassment. After the court submitted the case to mediation, the parties reached a settlement. The court entered a consent decree in June 2004. The three year consent decree included an anti-discrimination provision, an anti-retaliation provision, one all-day sexual harassment training session, and the termination of two employees. The defendant also must pay the charging parties a total of $75,000 in compensatory damages (evenly distributed). Lionel Joiner - 05/30/2007 compress summary
