Case: Discrimination/Retaliation (D. Colo.)

A Colorado federal district court denied in part the Custer County Board of Commissioners’ motion to dismiss, allowing a female custodian’s Title VII of the Civil Rights Act sex discrimination, hostile work environment, retaliation, and First Amendment retaliation claims to proceed, finding she sufficiently alleged adverse employment actions including reduction of work hours by half, gender-based discrimination through derogatory comments and treatment, and retaliation for protected speech related to reporting discrimination and participating in a recall effort against a county commissioner.
