Reference no: EM131006809

Over a period of about twelve months, a female employee at a car dealership was subjected to four incidents of unwanted touching. On the first three occasions, a manager of the dealership sat down next to her during business meetings at the dealership, placed his hand on her knee, slid his hand under her skirt, and moved his hand up and down her thigh. On the fourth occasion, the manager did the same thing, but the setting was a restaurant where employees had gone for a re- ception following the funeral of one of the firm's owners. The employee complained to several managers and was told to keep a record of the incidents, but no other action was taken. The employee sued. What should the court decide? Why? (Parrish v. Sollecito, 249 F. Supp.2d 342 (S.D.N.Y. 2003))
