Federal Express Corp. v. Holowecki
No. 06-1322

Title:

Federal Express Corporation v. Paul Holowecki, et al.

Subject:

Question:

Whether the Second Circuit erred in concluding, contrary to the law of several other circuits and implicating an issue the Supreme Court has examined but not yet decided, that an "intake questionnaire" submitted to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission ("EEOC") may suffice for the charge of discrimination that must be submitted pursuant to the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, 29 U.S.C. section 621 et seq. ("ADEA"), even in the absence of evidence that the EEOC treated the form as a charge or the employee submitting the questionnaire reasonably believed it constituted a charge.

Decisions:
