Defendant's Attorney: Jan S. Michelsen and Kate Elizabeth Trinkle

Description: New Albany, New York civil rights lawyer represented the Plaintiff who sued the Defendant on a Job Discrimination (Employment) theory under 42 U.S.C. 2000e.

"Job Discrimination (Employment) law 2000e is Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. It prohibits employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, and national origin. Title VII applies to all employers with 15 or more employees, including state and local governments.

Under Title VII, it is illegal for an employer to:

Refuse to hire someone because of their race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.
Fire someone because of their race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.
Discriminate against someone in terms of their compensation, terms, conditions, or privileges of employment because of their race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.
Retaliate against someone for opposing employment discrimination or for participating in an investigation or proceeding related to employment discrimination.

Title VII is enforced by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). Employees who believe they have been discriminated against can file a charge with the EEOC. If the EEOC is unable to resolve the charge through mediation, it may file a lawsuit in federal court on behalf of the employee.

Individuals can also file their own Title VII lawsuits in federal court. However, they must first file a charge with the EEOC and receive a right-to-sue letter from the EEOC.

If you believe you have been discriminated against at work, you should contact an employment lawyer to discuss your legal options.

Here are some examples of job discrimination that are prohibited by Title VII:

An employer refuses to hire a Black applicant because of their race.
An employer fires a Muslim employee because of their religion.
An employer pays a female employee less than a male employee for doing the same job.
An employer demotes a pregnant employee because of her sex.
An employer retaliates against an employee for filing a complaint with the EEOC.

Title VII is an important law that helps to protect workers from discrimination. If you believe you have been discriminated against at work, you should contact an employment lawyer to discuss your legal rights and options."
