U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 03-2582
Eastern District of Missouri
Civil Case - sexual hostile work environment discrimination. Jury
award of emotional distress and punitive damages to employee subjected
to co-worker harassment is affirmed. Claims were not time-barred
because harassment before and after limitations period was part and
parcel of hostile environment. Trial court did not err in rejecting jury
instruction because proposed instruction did not correctly state the law.
Claim under the Missouri Human Rights Act was also not time-barred.
The amount of the award is affirmed. [PUBLISHED] [Wollman, Author,
