CIVIL ACTION NO.
COMPLAINT JURY TRIAL DEMANDED INJUNCTIVE RELIEF SOUGHT

NATURE OF THE ACTION
This is an action under Title vn of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Title I of the Civil
Rights Act of 1991 to correct unlawful employment practices on the basis of sex and retaliation, and to provide appropriate relief to Cynthia Lane who was adversely affected by such practices. As stated with greater particularity in paragraph 7, the Commission alleges that Cynthia Lane was subjected to sexual harassment by Defendant's Director of Marketing and Sales. The conduct was sufficiently severe and pervasive to constitute an intimidating, hostile and offensive work environment. The Commission further alleges that Defendant subsequently retaliated against Cynthia Lane for complaining of the unlawful sexual harassment by terminating her employment with Defendant.
JURISDICTION AND VENUE 1. Jurisdiction of this Court is invoked pursuant to 28 U.S.c. §§ 451, 1331, 1337, 1343 and 1345. This action is authorized and instituted pursuant to Section 706(f)(1) and (3) of
