Federal Law Suit Filed Against Court

Wednesday, July 16, 2008

Willows - Glenn Superior Court Administrators will soon land in court as defendants. The Law firm of Goyette and Associates filed a law suit in Federal Court Monday on behalf of UPEC member Norma Ragoza. Raygoza, a Court Clerk was denied promotion for 2.5 years longer than her fellow Caucasian workers. The EEOC spent over 18 months conducting an investigation of the complaint filed by Ragoza and ruled that Glenn Superior Court had discriminated against Raygoza “because of her race, hispanic.” “Norma is an excellent and loyal employee with a great written record of performance. She doesn’t deserve what Court Administrators have done to her”, stated UPEC Business Manager Chris Darker. Norma is possibly facing another 18 months before her case is finally resolved.
