Obtained a full dismissal of discrimination claims from the CHRO on behalf of a health care company. The company revoked an offer of employment based on recent convictions that were discovered in an applicant’s background check. The applicant sued, claiming that he was being discriminated against on the basis of race under Title VII and the CFEPA. The CHRO found that the employer had established a legitimate, non-discriminatory reason for its decision.
