of Case: |
A
49-year-old female maid sued the defendant hotel alleging
sexual harassment. The plaintiff contended that her supervisor
sexually harassed her by using inappropriate language and
gestures, and physically touching her. She alleged that nothing
was done to stop the harassment after she reported it. The
defendant denied knowledge of sexual harassment and contended
that the plaintiff's supervisor was terminated when an investigation
revealed the harassment. |
