We do not have a copy of the complaint. However, according to the consent decree, the complaint alleged that the defendant sexually harassed and retaliated against two female employees in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The parties had some discovery disputes before reaching a settlement in July 2000 through a consent decree.
