See, e.g., Wygant, 106 S.Ct. at 1847; Fullilove, 448 U.S. at 484, 100 S.Ct. at 2777; id. at 496, 100 S.Ct. at 2783 (Powell, J., concurring); Weber, 443 U.S. at 197, 99 S.Ct. at 2724; Bakke, 438 U.S. at 307-308, 98 S.Ct. .2d 557, 562-63 (7th Cir.1984) (<HOLDING>).

 Holding statements: (A) holding that plaintiffs evidence of statistical disparities in hiring promotion and compensation was sufficient to support claim of intentional discrimination where the employment decisions were based on completely subjective criteria (B) holding that statistical disparity plus other indicia of past discrimination constitute sufficient remedial predicate (C) holding in the discrimination context that a plaintiff may challenge incidents which occurred outside the statute of limitations period if the various acts of discrimination constitute a continuing pattern of discrimination (D) holding that an anonymous tip must have sufficient indicia of reliability to justify a stop and frisk (E) holding that a thirtyone month delay could be outweighed by other indicia of reliability
Output (English): holding in the discrimination context that a plaintiff may challenge incidents which occurred outside the statute of limitations period if the various acts of discrimination constitute a continuing pattern of discrimination
