Case: Discrimination/Retaliation (N.D. Ill.)

An Illinois federal district court granted summary judgment to the City of Chicago on Title VII of the Civil Rights Act claims of sex discrimination, race discrimination, and retaliation brought by a White female fire engineer-EMT who alleged inadequate bathroom facilities for women and discriminatory promotion practices, as well as retaliation for filing an EEOC complaint regarding these practices, finding that shared restrooms were not discriminatory without evidence of hostile work environment, race-based promotion decisions were justified by a consent decree, and the plaintiff failed to establish causation for her retaliation claims.
