In February 2004, the Charlotte District Office of the EEOC brought this suit against Holt's Family Restaurant in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of North Carolina. The complaint alleged that the defendant subjected the two charging parties, female employees, to a sexually hostile work environment, resulting in their constructive discharge in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. After some scheduling orders, the parties settled in December 2004 through a consent decree.
The three-year decree, containing non-discrimination and non-retaliation clauses, required the defendant to: expunge the charging parties' personnel files from all references to the charges of discrimination, provide the charging parties with positive letters of reference, implement an anti-harassment policy, provide annual Title VII training for all its employees, report to the EEOC at specified intervals, and pay $3,750 to each of the charging parties.
The decree was entered in 2004 and scheduled to last 2007. No further docket entries exist, so the case is closed.
