Case Summary

In April 1999, the EEOC's Phoenix office filed this suit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Arizona against Lucent Technologies, Inc. The only information available for this summary was the docket sheet. The parties showed early a predisposition toward settlement as when they had the case stayed in June 2001 pending a conciliation process. Later, in March 2002, the parties stipulated to a settlement conference before a Magistrate Judge. Before this conference could take place, however, the parties settled the case and notified the court of such in May 2002. The case was subsequently dismissed with prejudice in July 2002.
