Charge!

Late last week we learned that filing an EEOC “charge questionnaire” was the same thing, apparently, as filing an EEOC “charge of discrimination.” Even though the petitioner in this case had filed both. This was another instance of a person making a very simple mistake that, when presented to a jury, will make that person appear to be not so credible. Here, it was identifying the date of the relevant event as April 6, 2004 and April 2004 where the event actually occurred on July 6, 2004. Simple and fruitful cross examination possibilities abound.
