In Canty v. The Dept. of Educ. of the City of New York (Sup. Ct. Kings Cty. 500257/2015 Feb. 1, 2018), the court held, inter alia, that plaintiff – a 61 year-old, African teacher – stated a cause of action for retaliation and discrimination under the NYC Human Rights Law. In sum, the court held that plaintiff sufficiently alleged these claims, noting that in her complaint she “alleges she was treated differently than younger, non-black colleagues without EEO activity.”
