Status Update

Following a status conference on March 20, 2019, the EEOC Administrative Judge issued an order.

USPS continues it’s stubborn opposition to providing money relief to claimants. USPS has submitted disputes to the EEOC for over 28,000 claims; to the best of our knowledge USPS has provisionally and/or partially “accepted” less than one percent of claims, and has made zero payments to any claimants.

We all recognize this behavior by USPS: deny, deny, dispute, delay, until a Judge orders otherwise. At the status conference, USPS called more plays from this old playbook. The EEOC Judge, on the other hand, has clearly demonstrated a desire to move forward as efficiently as possible. The Judge did clarify that our firms no longer serve as Class Counsel to all claimants, but that we do represent those claimants who have retained us to represent them with their claims.
