Case Summary

The EEOC's Cleveland District Office brought this action against I.D. Tool Co. and related businesses in November 1996, in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio. The only document that is publicly available regarding this case is the docket. Thus, we do not know the exact allegations of the complaint. In January 1997, two individual complainants intervened in the suit. In February 1997, various cross-claims were filed among the original parties and their business affiliates. One of the defendants K.M.P. Acquisition Corp. was dismissed from the suit in October 1997. In December 1997, a default judgment was entered against D.I. Tool Company. The remaining parties reached a settlement through a consent decree in January 1998.
