Case Summary

The New York District Office of the EEOC brought this suit against Dellon Sales Company, a wholesaler of construction materials located in Alberston, New York. The suit was filed in August of 1998 in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York. The only document available from PACER is the docket, which contains no specifics about the allegations or the terms of the outcome. The case's only important events are the intervention of the complainant and the conferences before the magistrate judge. The conferences consisted of two regular scheduling conferences and then three settlement conferences. It appears that the parties reached a settlement on the first of February, 2000. Subsequently, the court discontinued the action with leave to reopen if the settlement is not consummated. A consent decree was ordered in late March of 2000.
