Thus, although the Fair Pay Act would save Ms. Frintner’s unfair compensation claim from being wholly time-barred, her failure-to-promote claim is time-barred to the extent that it is based on a failure to promote that occurred more than 300 days before October 1, 2009.Read the full opinion on CourtListener →

A discrete discriminatory act starts its own Title VII charge-filing period; a hostile work environment claim may be timely if a contributing act occurs within that period.
Hysjulien v. Hill Top Home of Comfort, Inc. · filed 2013-03-04(e)(1)
For purposes of filing a Title VII claim, a discrete retaliatory or discriminatory act occurs on the date it happens, but “[a] hostile work environment claim is composed of a series of separate acts that collectively constitute one ‘unlawful employment practice.’” Morgan , 536 U.S. at 110-117. In this case, counting backward 300 days from the July 2, 2009 initial filing with the Department, Hysjulien’s claim may be timely if it asserts any allegedly discrete retaliatory or discriminatory act or at least one act of an actionable hostile work environment practice occurring on or after September 5, 2008.Read the full opinion on CourtListener →

Soni v. Wespiser · filed 2017-03-03(e)
Defendants are correct that any claim relying solely on the defendants’ conduct during Dr. Soni’s employment with Berkshire in 2008-2010 is time barred. However, the complaint alleges that Dr. Soni was notified of her denial of privileges at Catholic Medical Center, and the defendants’ hand in that decision, in July 2013. The complaint further provides that Dr. Couni-han’s communications with Baystate Medical Center occurred at some point after December 2013, so both the EEOC and MCAD Charges were timely filed with regards to those events. Therefore, Dr. Soni’s employment discrimination claims may not be dismissed as untimely because at least some of the discriminatory actions alleged in the complaint fall within the allowed time period.Read the full opinion on CourtListener →
