How Do I Serve Court Papers on a Large Company
My question involves labor and employment law for the state of: NC
I went through the EEOC (ADA) and employer and I requested mediation. They offered me a position as a settlement and then changed their minds a few days later. (I don't know what happened?) :wallbang:
Anyway, I decided that I did not want to wait for EEOC and file a lawsuit right now since I've waited the required amount of time. They are a very large company (8,000 employees) and one of their human resources managers contacted me with the job offer and later declined. Is that who I list on the lawsuit? I have the hr managers name, address and information, or do I list the company itself? I have an attorney but he wants me to fill this part out. Thanks so much.

you have to get a right to sue letter from EEOC

Quoting Requesting a Notice of Right to Sue
You may request a Notice of Right To Sue by contacting the EEOC office handling your charge. You should submit the request in writing.
If you filed your charge under Title VII (discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex and national origin), or under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) based on disability, you must have a Notice of Right To Sue from EEOC before you can file a lawsuit in federal court. Generally, you must allow EEOC 180 days to resolve your charge. Although, in some cases, EEOC may agree to issue a Notice of Right To Sue before the 180 days.
If you filed your charge under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (discrimination based on age 40 and above), you do not need a Notice of Right to Sue from EEOC. You may file a lawsuit in federal court 60 days after your charge was filed with EEOC.
If you filed your charge under the Equal Pay Act (wage discrimination based on sex), you do not need a Notice of Right To Sue from EEOC. You may file a lawsuit in federal court within two years from the day you received the last discriminatory paycheck.

Agree. The courts will not accept your case without a right to sue letter from the EEOC.
