On May 28, 2003, the EEOC filed a complaint on behalf of charging party, a female employee, in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois. The complaint alleged violations of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Title I of the Civil Rights Act of 1991 committed by defendant Walsh Construction Company of Illinois. Specifically, plaintiff claimed the company by subjecting the charging party to a hostile work environment as the result of sexual harassment and failed to take prompt action to eliminate this behavior after having notice.

In an amended complaint, the EEOC added a claim for intentional infliction of emotional distress.

On August 30, 2006, the Court (Judge James B. Zagel) granted summary judgment in favor of defendant on the intentional infliction of emotional distress claim but denied summary judgment on the sexual harassment claim.

On September 5, 2007, the case was transferred and reassigned to Magistrate Judge Arlander Keys for the duration.

On November 19, 2007, Magistrate Keys approved a Consent Decree with an 18 month duration which and provided injunctive relief against harassment, and required distribution and posting of new company policies regarding harassment. Defendant also agreed to a non-retaliation provision and a new system of employee training, record keeping and reporting in regards to harassment issues. The charging party received $130,000.
