Miscellaneous
In this episode I discuss the Comcast case which was heard by the Supreme Court on November 13th. It looks like the Court will read a heightened "but for" causation standard into 42 USC 1981. Section 1981 is our oldest civil rights law and was passed to protect former slaves after the Civil War. I discuss the ramifications of the case and put it in the context of other recent civil rights decisions and employment law as a whole.
