Dear Reviewing Counsel:It had entirely slipped my mind until a reader emailed me to remind me that Citibank just last year settled a sex discrimination case for $33M:
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/the-women-who-took-on-a-banking-giant-and-won-a-33m-sexism-case-804888.html
“The women who took on a banking giant and won a $33m sexism case."
"A trio of women who battled against discrimination in the male-dominated world of American finance have won a $33m (£16m) legal settlement that will compensate thousands of underpaid female employees and marks another step in the fight against sexism, bullying and unequal pay on Wall Street."
………and another one waits in the wings.
