FACTS
Plaintiff the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission alleged that a dishwasher at Fuzia, a restaurant in Morgan Hill, was abruptly informed that the restaurant no longer had work for her, weeks after she reported to the owner of the restaurant, as well as to police, an incident that she perceived as sexual harassment. After an investigation by an EEOC investigator and first attempting to reach a pre-litigation settlement through conciliation efforts, the EEOC filed the suit against The Good Fork formerly known as Fuzia Group, Inc., formerly doing business as Fuzia, for violating the anti-retaliation provision of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 for opposing discrimination, such as sexual harassment., The EEOC sought recovery of damages on behalf of the dishwasher, as well as sought injunctive relief.
