CompFox AI Summary
Plaintiffs Annette Streeter and Ivette Ellis were terminated from an electrician's apprenticeship program in early 1988, alleging sexual harassment and discriminatory treatment. They filed administrative charges, and subsequently, this Title VII and New York Human Rights Law action against Local Union No. 3, NYECA, AEC, and JIB. Defendants moved to dismiss the amended complaint based on subject matter jurisdiction (failure to name all defendants in administrative complaints), timeliness of claims, and lack of liability for alleged discriminatory acts, and also moved for severance of claims. The court denied most of the defendants' motions, holding that the single filing rule applies, further inquiry is needed into the integrated enterprise theory for defendants' relationship, claims were timely under continuing violation and equitable principles, and plaintiffs sufficiently pleaded discriminatory discharge and hostile environment claims. The court also denied the motion for severance and declined to dismiss pendent state claims.
