📰 "Extra, Extra! Read All About [the Latest Supreme Court Employment Law Precedent...]" 📢
Attention multi-state employers! The U.S. Supreme Court has decided Muldrow v. City of St. Louis - which answered this (Circuit-contested) question:
-- Q: Can a job transfer, which does not affect the employee's job title or salary, still be actionable under Title VII if it results in other forms of harm?
-- A: In certain circumstances (including the SCOTUS case at bar), "Yes".
Alongside my exceptional co-author Chris Stevens, we’ve dissected the opinion, including its direct and indirect implications for compliance - particularly for multi-state employers.
Our "Expert Analysis" piece provides a comprehensive examination, from foundational elements like "standing" and the previous "Circuit-Split", to practical guidance for employers on how to comply, as well as what the decision may mean for future (or ongoing) Title VII lawsuits on issues like damage awards and punitive-damage multipliers. Yes, we really did go into the weeds on this one.
A heartfelt thank you to the Nixon Peabody LLP marketing and proofreading team for their timely and patient support, and to Law360 for partnering with us to produce this important work.
Feel free to reach out to Chris or myself if you have any questions about the decision, or what it means for you or your business.
