Washington v. Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority · filed 2021-03-31(e)(1)

A Title VII plaintiff must file a charge with the EEOC within either 180 or 300 days after the “alleged unlawful employment practice occurred.” 42 U.S.C. § 2000e–5(e)(1). ... Thus, the incidents described in the factual background form Ceballos’ hostile work environment claim.

Corradino v. Liquidnet Holdings, Inc. · filed 2021-07-08(e)(1)

Some of these incidents fall within the three-year limitations period for NYSHRL and NYCHRL claims and the 300-day look-back period from the date Plaintiff filed the EEOC charge applicable to her Title VII claims. The ongoing nature of the harassment is underscored by Merrin repeatedly propositioning Plaintiff. Accordingly, Plaintiff’s Title VII, NYSHRL and NYCHRL claims are timely for the purposes of the pleading stage.

As Dr. Rink submitted her intake questionnaire with the NERC in February 2018, and as the record does not establish that the intake questionnaire was not a charge of discrimination, the Court will deny Defendants’ motion to dismiss Counts 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6 as time-barred.

Chan v. Baker · filed 2021-09-15(e)(1)

First, Chan’s ADEA and Title VII claims are untimely as both claims were subject to a 300-day limitation period. 29 U.S.C. § 626(d)(1)(B) (ADEA); 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-5(e)(1) (Title VII). Chan alleged that the unlawful conduct occurred on July 31, 2017, or the date his position would be eliminated. D. 27-1 at 2. 300 days from that date would be May 28, 2018, but Chan filed his complaint with the Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination (“MCAD”) on June 25, 2018. Because Chan filed his complaint with MCAD after the statute of limitations had run, these claims are untimely and must be dismissed.

The Court therefore grants Defendants’ motion to dismiss as untimely Plaintiff’s Title VII and ADA claims to the extent those claims are based on acts occurring before September 18, 2018, with the exception of Plaintiff’s hostile work environment claim, as to which Defendants’ motion is denied.

Section 2000e-5(e)(1) allows 300 days to file an EEOC charge where a state or locality has its own antidiscrimination law and enforcement agency; discrete acts outside that period are time-barred.

Kuperman v. New York City Department of Education · filed 2021-09-28(e)(1)

Plaintiff has alleged only a series of discrete acts, and has not alleged the sort of “repeated conduct” required to plausibly invoke the continuing violation doctrine. Therefore, while Plaintiff may seek to introduce evidence of discrete acts occurring prior to January 8, 2019, to the extent relevant as background evidence in support of a timely discrimination claim, the Court dismisses Plaintiff’s Title VII claims to the extent they are premised on discrete acts that allegedly occurred prior to January 8, 2019.

As Plaintiff has only alleged discrete acts of discrimination and has failed to identify any continuing discriminatory policy of practice, the continuing violation doctrine does not apply.

Thus, any discrete retaliatory acts occurring before January 18, 2020 (what the court will call “the pre-limitations period”), aren’t timely.
