Case Summary

The El Paso office of the EEOC brought this suit in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas against Texas Health Enterprises, Inc. in September 1999. A copy of the complaint is unavailable, and accordingly, the nature of the allegations is not known for certain, though the docket indicates it was probably a Title VII case. After a stay in the proceedings pending resolution of the defendant's bankruptcy case, the parties entered a settlement agreement in September 2000. A copy of the settlement agreement is unavailable, but from the order dismissing the case, we know the settlement agreement had a term of four years.
