We do not have a copy of the complaint; therefore, the exact allegations involved are unknown. Following some discovery, the court entered a default judgment against the defendants in June 2007. The judgment placed an injunction against the defendants from discriminating or retaliating against employees and required the defendants to pay $200,000 to the EEOC office for distribution at its own discretion.
