The 300th day preceding that charge would be April 2, 2019.

Ms. Detillion’s Title VII claim that OCSEA refused to file grievances on her behalf between December 2019 and September 2020 falls outside the limitations period and are time-barred for failure to exhaust her administrative remedies.

Hubert v. Department of Correction · filed 2024-07-17(e)(1)

In order to pursue a Title VII claim, the complainant must file a charge of unlawful employment discrimination with the EEOC within 180 days of the alleged unlawful practice. 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-5(e)(1). ... The Court, therefore, does not credit Ms. Hubert’s statement of filing a timely charge with the CHRO and applies only the 180-day requirement provided by Title VII.

Section 2000e-5(e)(1) requires a plaintiff in a deferral state to file an EEOC charge within 300 days of the alleged unlawful employment practice.

Ghumman v. Boeing Intelligence & Analytics, Inc. · filed 2024-07-24(e)(1)

In Maryland, which is a deferral state, Title VII requires that a plaintiff “file a ‘charge’ of discrimination with the EEOC or an appropriate state or local agency” within 300 days of when “the alleged unlawful employment practice occurred.” Angelini v. Balt. Police Dep’t, 464 F. Supp. 3d 756, 777 (D. Md. 2020) (quoting 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-5(e)(1)) (other citations omitted).

PATTERSON v. USELTON · filed 2024-08-19(e)(1)

Therefore, the operative date becomes 180 days prior to January 27, 2023—which is July 31, 2022. Everything in Plaintiff’s Complaint before July 31, 2022, then, cannot be the basis for a timely discrimination claim.

Vivian Martin v. Boeing Co · filed 2024-08-21(e)(1)

With respect to other adverse employment actions alleged by Martin, the District Court concluded that all but one of the alleged actions occurred before May 29, 2019— the cutoff date under the 300-day statute of limitations and Martin’s EEOC charge filing date—and were therefore time-barred. ... Upon review, we concur with the District Court’s conclusions for the reasons that it provided.

Additionally, insofar as Plaintiff asserts that she was pursuing her ODI complaint, filing such a complaint does not toll the statute of limitations for filing a Title VII claim.

These isolated events cannot form the basis of a continuing hostile environment sufficient to overcome the 300-day time limitation.

McDougal v. Wake County, North Carolina · filed 2024-09-05(e)(1)

Section 2000e-5(e)(1) requires an ADA administrative charge to be filed within 300 days of the alleged discrimination.

Marciano v. NBCUniversal Media LLC · filed 2024-09-05(e)(1)

For Plaintiff’s ADA claims to be timely, the alleged discrimination must have occurred “no more than 300 days prior to the filing of the administrative charge.” Lovell v.

Morris v. NYS Department of Corrections and Community Supervision · filed 2024-09-20(e)(1)

Thus, any claims related to alleged discrimination that occurred after March 11, 2021, including Plaintiff’s denied promotion in August 2021, are timely. However, the Court finds that the other denied promotions do not fall under the continuing violation doctrine and are therefore time-barred.

Section 2000e-5(e)(1) requires a Title VII claimant to file an administrative charge within 300 days of the alleged discriminatory act.

Molina v. John Jay Institute For Justice and Opportunity/City University of New York · filed 2024-09-24(e)(1)

It is well-established that under Title VII, plaintiffs must file a complaint with the EEOC or New York State Division of Human Rights within 300 days of the alleged discriminatory act. ... Plaintiff’s refusal to hire claim is therefore untimely. Accordingly, the Court dismisses Plaintiff’s Title VII refusal to hire claim as to all Defendants.

Moriarty v. Port of Seattle · filed 2024-09-25(e)(1)

Plaintiff does not allege that additional discriminatory conduct occurred within the 300-day period; thus, the date of her termination began the 300-day period within which Plaintiff was required to file her complaint with the EEOC.

Section 2000e-5(e)(1)’s 300-day deadline for filing an EEOC charge extends to the next business day when it falls on a weekend or holiday.

Mintner v. Milwaukee Electric Tool Corporation · filed 2024-09-25(e)(1)

Section 2000e-5(e)(1) gives a plaintiff 300 days to file a discrimination charge in a state with its own anti-discrimination agency; later consequences of a discrete act do not restart that period.

W. v. Yale University · filed 2024-09-30(e)(1)

Therefore, as in Semper, even though Defendants’ denial of Plaintiff’s medical benefits and subsequent collections action may have been separate discrete acts, her CHRO complaint was still untimely because accrual of claims based upon those events occurred at the time of her withdrawal and/or termination.

Section 2000e-5(e)(1) requires an EEOC charge in a non-deferral state to be filed within 180 days of the alleged unlawful employment practice.

JOHNSON v. OCONEE CENTER COMMUNITY SERVICE BOARD · filed 2024-10-03(e)(1)

Here, Plaintiff would not be able to reassert her allegations for her sexual harassment claim because of the 180-day time bar imposed by the statute. 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-5(e)(1). Accordingly, with respect to Plaintiff’s sexual harassment claim, dismissal with prejudice is warranted.

Worthen v. Chi St Vincent Infirmary · filed 2024-10-08(e)(1)

Too, because each discrete claim of discrimination must be brought within 180-days of the discriminatory or retaliatory conduct, Worthen is barred from raising any conduct that occurred before September 4, 2022 (180 days before her 3/3/23 EEOC charge).

Thurman v. City of Frankfort · filed 2024-12-17(e)(1)

Section 2000e-5(e)(1) bars claims based on discriminatory acts outside the charge-filing period.

Williams v. Eastern Kentucky University · filed 2024-12-18(e)(1)

All of Williams’ failure to promote claims related to positions she applied for while employed by EKU are barred by the statute of limitations under 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-5(e)(1) (i.e., Director of Annual Giving (2019), Marketing Professor Facilitator (2021), Business Professor Facilitator (2021), Senior Programmer Analyst (2020)).

Section 2000e-5(e)(1)’s 300-day charge-filing period runs from an alleged unlawful employment practice, not an employee’s request for accommodation.

Wood v. Independent School District No. 5 of Tulsa County, Oklahoma · filed 2024-12-20(e)(1)

But that misconstrues the statute; an employee’s request for accommodation is not an “unlawful employment practice” prohibited by the ADA. 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-5(e)(1).

Section 2000e-5(e)(1) requires a claimant to file a charge within 300 days of the alleged unlawful employment practice when a worksharing agreement is in place.

Sharpe v. Shriners Hospitals for Children · filed 2024-12-30(e)(1)

When a worksharing agreement is in place, 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-5(e)(1) requires a claimant to file her charge with the authorized state agency within 300 days of the allegedly unlawful employment practice. ... Her claim thus falls outside Title VII’s 300-day deadline.

Newbold v. HealthEquity Inc · filed 2025-01-23(e)(1)

The limitations period that applies to Friesen’s gender discrimination and disparate impact claims is 300 days. 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-5(1). ...

Section 2000e-5(e)(1) requires a Title VII plaintiff in Rhode Island to file an administrative charge within 300 days of the last alleged violation.

Thomas v. International CDL Tractor Trailer Training, LLC · filed 2025-01-24(e)(1)

Section 2000e-5(e)(1) allows courts to independently determine whether a charge met the 300-day state agency filing deadline, regardless of the agency’s chosen filing date.

Harvey v. Brigham & Womens Hospital, Inc. · filed 2025-01-28(e)(1)

Courts in this district are “empowered to make an independent finding on timeliness” and are not bound by the MCAD’s or the EEOC’s “findings in this regard.” ... As such, the Court need not adopt the MCAD’s February 11, 2021 filing date, as Harvey suggests it must.

Section 2000e-5(e)(1) sets the charge-filing period for Title VII claims; a claim cannot be dismissed as untimely when the complaint does not show that the period has run.

Coleman v. Telles · filed 2025-02-05(e)(1)

Because the plaintiffs did not allege when they filed their EEOC charges, and because their hostile work environment claims may include conduct that falls outside the statutory period under the continuing violations doctrine, it is not apparent from the face of the complaint that their Title VII and state law discrimination claims are untimely. See 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-5(e)(1); Nev. Rev. Stat. § 613.430; Scott v. Gino Morena Enters., LLC, 888 F.3d 1101, 1112 (9th Cir. 2018). I therefore deny Telles’ motion to dismiss on this ground.

In a deferral state, a Title VII charge must be filed within 300 days of the alleged unlawful employment practice; evidence of a timely charge can prevent summary judgment on timeliness.

Carter v. Baltimore City Police Department · filed 2025-02-20(e)(1)

Because Plaintiff submitted a charge document that reflects the date of May 26, 2020, the Court cannot hold as a matter of law that Plaintiff's suit is time-barred.

Section 2000e-5(e) permits equitable tolling of the charge-filing period for acts preceding the cutoff date.

Dickens v. Office of the State Superintendant of Education · filed 2025-03-21(e)

Miles v. Port Arthur ISD · filed 2025-03-25(e)(1)

In Texas, because there is a state agency with the authority to grant or seek relief for discriminatory employment practices, in order to maintain a Title VII claim, a plaintiff must file her charge of discrimination with the EEOC or the designated state agency within “three hundred days after the alleged unlawful employment practice occurred.” ... Accordingly, to the extent that Miles’s Title VII claims are premised on allegedly discriminatory conduct that occurred during her employment, her claims are time-barred.

Section 2000e-5(e)(1) requires a Maryland Title VII claimant to file a discrimination charge within 300 days of an alleged unlawful employment practice; claims based on earlier discrete acts are untimely.

However, any discrimination and retaliation claims based on discrete acts occurring before July 26, 2021, must be dismissed as untimely.

Section 2000e-5(e)(1)’s 300-day charge-filing period applies to the alleged retaliatory action; the employee’s protected activity need not occur within that period.

Ferrao-Rivera v. Puerto Rico Department of Education · filed 2025-05-09(e)(1)

It is the retaliatory action performed by the defendant, however, which must fall within the 300-day timeliness window, not the protected activity performed by the plaintiff.

In Massachusetts, § 2000e-5(e)(1) requires a Title VII claimant to file an administrative discrimination charge within 300 days after the claim accrues.

Lane v. Commonwealth of Massachusetts Essex County Sheriff's Department · filed 2025-06-27(e)(1)

Instead, each statute requires the aggrieved party to file an administrative charge with a state or federal anti-discrimination agency within 300 days of the date the claim accrues.

Section 2000e-5(e)(1) allows 300 days to file a Title VII charge when the complainant first initiates state agency proceedings; a claim based on a demotion outside that period is time barred.

Ruiz v. Magellan Financial & Insurance Services · filed 2025-06-30(e)(1)

However, to the extent Ruiz contends he was also subjected to a separate, earlier demotion that began in March 2021—a theory that also fails for additional reasons discussed in later portions of this order—any Title VII claim premised on that demotion is barred because it occurred more than 300 days before Plaintiff filed the Charge.

Section 2000e-5(e)(1) requires a claimant to file an administrative charge within 180 days of the allegedly unlawful conduct.

Lanier v. Smedberg · filed 2025-07-29(e)(1)

Title VII requires a claimant to file an administrative complaint within 180 days of the allegedly unlawful conduct. 42 U.S.C. § 2000e–5(e)(1). ... Lanier’s Title VII discrimination claim is therefore untimely insofar as it relies on the failure to promote him.

Section 2000e-5(e)(1) gives a plaintiff 300 days to file an EEOC charge when the plaintiff first brings the matter to an authorized state or local agency.

Simon v. Department of Education · filed 2025-08-07(e)(1)

A plaintiff must file an administrative charge with the EEOC within 300 days of the allegedly discriminatory act where, as here, “the person aggrieved has initially instituted proceedings with a State or local agency with authority to grant or seek relief.” 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-5(e)(1). Simon first filed charges with the NYSDHR on October 11, 2018, which then filed them with the EEOC. Thus, claims relating to conduct from before December 15, 2017 are presumptively time-barred.

Section 2000e-5(e)(1) requires a timely administrative charge before an ADA suit may proceed; in this case, the filing period was 300 days.

Garza v. Houston Methodist Hospital · filed 2025-08-15(e)(1)

Thus, regardless of whether the “discriminatory act” was the denial of accommodation, unpaid suspension, or termination, Plaintiff’s charge of discrimination was not filed within 300 days of that act. This suit is thus time-barred, warranting dismissal.

Zhang v. Bank of China (Chicago Branch) · filed 2025-08-19(e)(1)

Douglass v. General Motors Corp. · filed 2005-03-31(e)(1)

The 180 day period is extended to 300 days if a charge is filed with a state or local agency with the authority to grant or seek relief. ... Because plaintiff filed a charge with the KHRC, a 300 day limitation applies. ... Accordingly, plaintiff has failed to timely exhaust her administrative remedies with respect to her discrimination claims.

Reviewing de novo, ... we find no error in the district court’s decision, see 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-5(e)(1) (charges must be filed within 180 days of the alleged unlawful employment practice); ... Accordingly, we affirm.

Section 2000e-5(e)(1)'s 300-day filing limit does not prevent a plaintiff from using older acts as background evidence for a timely claim.

Fortino v. Village of Woodridge, The · filed 2018-04-07(e)(1)

As an initial matter, the Village argues that any claims based on Fortino's December 2015 suspension are time-barred because they occurred more than 300 days before he filed with EEOC charge. See 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-5(e)(1). Fortino responds that he is not basing his claims on the 2015 suspension or seeking damages related to the suspension. Instead, he intends to use the suspension as evidence in support of his timely claims. In National Railroad Passenger Corp. v. Morgan, 536 U.S. 101, 113 (2002), the Supreme Court explained that an employee may use prior acts "as background evidence in support of a timely claim" even if the acts themselves do not provide an independent basis for liability because they are time-barred. Because they are based on events that post-date the 2015 suspension, there is no basis for dismissing Fortino's claims as time-barred.

Section 2000e-5(e)(1) gives employees in Puerto Rico 300 days to file an administrative charge for ADA and ADEA claims.

O'REILLY, Ph.D. v. THE INSTITUTE FOR CANCER RESEARCH · filed 2025-10-02(e)(1)

As the Court addressed in its Memorandum partially granting Defendants’ motion to dismiss, Title VII and the PFPO require an individual seeking to challenge an employment action to file a complaint with the EEOC and the PCHR within 300 days after the alleged unlawful action occurred. (See Doc. No. 38 at 9–10 (citing 42 U.S.C. § 2000e–5(e)(1); Phila. Code. §§ 9-1112(1), (3)).) Thus, the Court only considers evidence from that 300-day lookback period, which begins on November 4, 2022, for purposes of determining the sufficiency of Plaintiff’s claims at the summary judgment stage.

Section 2000e-5(e)(1) requires a discrimination charge filed with a state employment agency within 300 days of the alleged unlawful employment practice.

Graves v. Henkels & McCoy · filed 2025-12-22(e)(1)

Title VII and the ADA require individuals to file a charge of discrimination with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission within 180 days of the alleged unlawful employment practice, or, alternatively, with the state employment administrative agency within 300 days. 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-5(e)(1). ... The court concludes that Graves’s March 12 amendment was filed more than 300 days after the unlawful employment practice and is therefore untimely.

Davis · filed 2026-01-23(e)(1)

Watts · filed 2026-03-02(e)(1)

Title VII claims must be filed within 180 days after the alleged unlawful employment practice occurred. 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-5(e)(1). ... if “an act contributing to the claim occurs within the filing period, the entire time period of the hostile environment may be considered by a court for the purposes of determining liability.” ... So the Court will apply the continuing violation doctrine to determine whether all the allegations together establish a hostile work environment.

Section 2000e-5(e)(1) requires a timely discrimination charge, with the filing period running separately from each discrete discriminatory act.

University of Texas at Arlington v. McMerchant · filed 2026-03-03(e)(1)

McMerchant’s time clock for filing a Charge began no later than at the end of 2019, well over 300 days before he filed his Charge in January 2021. Because he did not timely file his Charge, McMerchant failed to exhaust his administrative remedies as required, and the district court erred in denying UTA’s plea to the jurisdiction.

Section 2000e-5(e)(1) bars Title VII claims based on discriminatory acts outside the applicable EEOC charge-filing period.

Serian v. JetBlue Airways Corporation · filed 2026-03-17(e)(1)

Serian’s complaint is untimely. JetBlue denied her request in August 2020. Because Serian did not file her charge with the Com- mission until October 2022—more than two years later—she failed to timely file a charge of discrimination. See 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-5(e)(1); Zillyette, 179 F.3d at 1339; Maynard, 256 F.3d at 1262.

Section 2000e-5(e)(1) generally requires a Title VII discrimination charge within 180 days, extended to 300 days when the charge is referred to a state deferral agency.

LaFauci · filed 2026-03-18(e)(1)

Title VII establishes two possible limitation periods for filing a discrimination charge: the basic limitations period is 180 days after the alleged unlawful employment practice but can be extended to 300 days in a deferral state if state law proscribes the alleged employment practice and the charge is first filed with a state deferral agency. 42 U.S.C. § 2000e–5(e)(1); see also Whitaker v. Nash Cnty., 504 F. App'x 237, 240 (4th Cir. 2013). ... Applying the 300-day filing window, Plaintiff cannot prevail on any claim under Title VII based upon misconduct alleged to have occurred before December 12, 2022.

Section 2000e-5(e) generally requires a charge within 300 days of an adverse employment action, but a hostile work environment claim may include earlier acts if a contributing act occurred within that period.

Malkowski v. Illinois Department of Corrections · filed 2026-03-24(e)

Under Title VII, a plaintiff has up to 300 days after an alleged adverse employment action to file a charge of discrimination with the EEOC or state fair employment practices agency. 42 U.S.C. § 2000e-5(e). ... The Court will not foreclose Malkowski’s claims as untimely because a reasonable jury could conclude that one of the acts after the Filing Period contributed to and continued his hostile and retaliatory work environment that began prior to the Filing Period.

Section 2000e-5(e)(1) requires a Title VII charge in Maryland to be filed within 300 days of the alleged unlawful employment practice.

Hurley · filed 2026-03-30(e)(1)

As a result, she cannot pursue any Title VII claim based on a discrete act of discrimination or retaliation occurring more than 300 days before the filing date. Here, that deadline is March 30, 2023. Yet, all the discrete acts described in Ms. Hurley’s Complaint occurred in 2022 or earlier—well outside the statutory limitations period.

Section 2000e-5(e)(1) requires a Title VII charge within 180 days of an alleged discriminatory act; a timely act may also support a hostile work environment claim.

LUFFMAN · filed 2026-03-31(e)(1)

Burns v. Veterans · filed 1998-10-05(f)(1)

The language of § 2000e-5(f)(1) (“in such circumstances as the court may deem just”) reflects a similarly discretionary standard for granting a Title VII plaintiff leave to file suit without payment of fees.

Pacheco v. Rice · filed 1992-06-20(e)(2)

Even if this provision were to be applied retroactively, a question we do not address here, it is inapplicable in this case where no seniority system is at issue.

Section 2000e-5(e)’s rule for when a seniority-system violation occurs does not apply when no seniority system is at issue.

Lorey Ann DAVIS, Appellee, v. TRI-STATE MACK DISTRIBUTORS, INC., Appellant · filed 1992-12-08(k)
