Briefs:  

  • Cardenas v. Massey, (3rd Cir.) (____kb)  Docket No. 5225 submitted October 30, 2000.  Brief of Plaintiff-Appellant.  Fredric Gross on the Brief, Susan Babb and Noel Crowley of Counsel.  Issues presented:  
         1. Should plaintiff have been granted summary judgment on disparate pay claims which were held to be time barred rather than continuing violations?
         2. Did the district court err in analyzing various forms of disparate treatment and reprisal in isolation from one another and from overtly ethnic harassment?  
         3. Did the district court's summary judgment rulings resolve factual disputes against the non-moving party?  
         4. Did the district court err in dismissing 42 U.S.C. § 1981 and New Jersey Law Against Discrimination ("LAD") claims against the individual defendants?  
         5. Does a district court have authority under Title VII, § 1981 and/or the LAD to order that the head of a State agency remove the taint of unlawful discrimination from a plaintiff's State personnel records?
