U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 02-1520
Western District of Missouri
Civil case - Equal Pay Act. Evidence was sufficient for jury to
find that defendant violated the Equal Pay Act by paying plaintiff
less than it paid her male successor, as the jobs they held required
equal work, skill and responsibility; there was also sufficient
evidence for the jury to determine that the wage discrimination
was based on sex; however, there was insufficient evidence of
malice or reckless indifference to support an award of punitive damages.
